A 30 day comment period has now opened for interested stakeholders to provide their input on LPO's recent request for information (RFI) related to expanded eligibility under the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) Loan Program. LPO is seeking feedback from all interested parties on issues related to eligibility criteria for additional modes of advanced transport eligible to receive ATVM financing, as provided for under the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Responses to the RFI will be accepted for 30 days after the RFI is published in the Federal Register (Friday, June 28, 2024): https://lnkd.in/g8jS-Hvq Specifically, this RFI seeks input on how DOE defines "increased performance" requirements for newly eligible "advanced technology vehicles" (ATV) categories—including trains or locomotives, maritime vessels, aircraft, and hyperloop technology—and focuses on the performance requirements and metrics for these expanded ATV modes, which may differ from those of on-road vehicles, the vehicle classes ATVM has exclusively supported to date. The RFI also seeks information on the necessary capital investments expected across each category’s supply chain; on planned investments in manufacturing from both supply- and demand side-perspectives; and on remaining technical, regulatory, and supply chain barriers to commercialization for each category. Finally, the RFI welcomes comments on how DOE might consider the broad goals of deploying clean energy, strengthening domestic manufacturing, investing in workers and communities, supporting the Justice40 initiative, and engaging in meaningful Tribal consultations when reviewing and evaluating applications for projects in the ATVM program. Interested parties may submit comments on the ATVM RFI via the Federal Register (https://lnkd.in/g8jS-Hvq) or via email at: lpofederalregistercomments@hq.doe.gov and include “ATVM Program RFI” in the subject line of the message.
