Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) Section 40207 Battery Materials Processing & Battery Manufacturing and Recycling Grant Programs

Status: ACTIVE
Funder: National Energy Technology Laboratory
Amount: US $50,000,000 - US $100,000,000
Last Updated: March 15, 2026

Summary

The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) Section 40207 grant program aims to enhance domestic battery materials processing, manufacturing, and recycling. This initiative, led by the Department of Energy's Manufacturing Deployment Office, seeks to bolster critical supply chains and increase production of essential minerals by 15% by 2030. The program encourages the establishment of demonstration and commercial facilities to ensure a reliable domestic supply of materials for advanced batteries, supporting sustainability and energy innovation.

Overview

The Manufacturing Deployment Office (MDO) is issuing this NOFO to request applications for projects which will develop domestic facilities toward battery materials processing, manufacturing, and recycling. The goals of this program are to strengthen critical domestic manufacturing and supply chains while increasing critical minerals production by up to 15% by 2030 for key critical materials used in batteries and other applications.See full text of the NOFO in Infrastructure eXCHANGE.
