Community Waste-to-Biofuel Development Grants

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) provides grants of up to $10 million for the development of strategies for communities to sustainably manage and recover clean energy sources from waste streams for transportation end-uses. Eligible projects include feasibility studies, design work, and experimental validation for renewable natural gas, hydrogen, or other waste-derived fuel. Applicants are encouraged to include currently available vehicles in their plans. Eligible prime applicants include non-profit organizations; transit authorities; and state, local, and tribal governments. For more information, see the DOE WASTE website.
