Federal Power Act.
DATES: Comments, protests, or motions
to intervene must be submitted on or
before September 4, 2018.
ADDRESSES: Comments, protests,
motions to intervene, or requests for
more information should be addressed
to: Office of Electricity, Mail Code: OE–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Exports of
electricity from the United States to a
foreign country are regulated by the
Department of Energy (DOE) pursuant to
sections 301(b) and 402(f) of the
Department of Energy Organization Act

On July 17, 2018, DOE received an
application from ADG for authorization
to transmit electric energy from the
United States to Canada as a power
marketer for a five-year term using
existing international transmission
facilities.
In its application, ADG states that it
does not own, operate, or control any
electric power generation, transmission,
or distribution facilities, and that it has
no franchised electric power service
area. The electric energy that the
Applicant proposes to export to Canada
would be surplus energy purchased
from third parties such as electric
utilities and other suppliers within the
United States pursuant to voluntary
agreements. The existing international

ACTION: Request for information (RFI).
AGENCY:
The U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) invites public comment
on its Request for Information (RFI) on
H2@Scale (Hydrogen at Scale):
Determining Opportunities to Facilitate
Wide-Scale Hydrogen Adoption for
Energy Security and Economic Growth.
The Office of Energy Efficiency and
Renewable Energy (EERE) is specifically
interested in information to quantify the
increasing industrial demand for
hydrogen, to identify and quantify the
available domestic resources capable of
generating sufficient hydrogen to
sustainably meet the demand in the
near- to long-terms across multiple
sectors, and to identify opportunities to
leverage current industrial
infrastructure to better meet the growing
demands for hydrogen across sectors.
DATES: Responses to the RFI must be
received no later than 5:00 p.m. (ET) on
October 31, 2018.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties are
invited to submit comments using the
Online Response Collector found at the
specified web link included in the RFI
document. Alternatively, responses can
be submitted as an attachment to an
email addressed to
fy18fctostrandedresources@ee.doe.gov
with ‘‘H2@Scale RFI’’ in the subject line.
Email attachments can be provided as a
Microsoft Word (.docx) file or an Adobe
PDF (.pdf) file, prepared in accordance
with the detailed instructions in the
RFI. Documents submitted
electronically should clearly indicate
which topic areas and specific questions
are being addressed, and should be

enable transformational technologies
that can sustainably produce and
efficiently utilize large quantities of
affordable hydrogen to collectively
enable energy storage, energy security,
grid resiliency, domestic employment,
and American dominance in energy
innovation. The purpose of this RFI is
to solicit feedback from industry,
academia, research laboratories,
government agencies, and other
stakeholders on opportunities and
strategies for expanding and
diversifying current hydrogen supply
options, and for leveraging and multipurposing current industrial
infrastructure to accommodate
widespread hydrogen usage. The RFI
seeks input in five topic areas:
Hydrogen supply expansion and
diversification; expansion of markets
requiring significant hydrogen demand;
leveraging and/or multi-purposing
industries and infrastructure to facilitate
widespread adoption of hydrogen;
potential sponsored competitions to
incentivize widespread adoption of
hydrogen across multiple sectors; and
other innovative approaches to help
enable H2@Scale.
