**Bonneville Power Administration**

**Availability of the Bonneville Purchasing Instructions (BPI) and**  **Bonneville Financial Assistance Instructions (BFAI)** 

**AGENCY :**  Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), DOE.

**ACTION :**  Notice of document availability.

**SUMMARY :**  Copies of the Bonneville Purchasing Instructions (BPI), which contain the policy and establish the procedures that BPA uses in the solicitation, award, and administration of its purchases of goods and services, including construction, are available in printed form or at the following Internet address: http://www.bpa.gov/corporate/ business/bpi.

Copies of the Bonneville Financial Assistance Instructions (BFAI), which contain the policy and establish the procedures that BPA uses in the solicitation, award, and administration of financial assistance instruments (principally grants and cooperative agreements), are available in printed form or available at the following Internet address: http://www.bpa.gov/ corporate/business/bfai.

**ADDRESSES :**  Unbound copies of the BPI or BFAI may be obtained by sending a request to the Head of the Contracting Activity, Routing CGP–7, Bonneville Power Administration, P.O. Box 3621, Portland, Oregon 97208–3621.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Head of Contracting Activity (503) 230–

5498.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  BPA was established in 1937 as a Federal Power Marketing Agency in the Pacific Northwest. BPA operations are financed from power revenues rather than annual appropriations. BPA’s purchasing operations are conducted under 16 U.S.C. 832 et seq. and related statutes. Pursuant to these special authorities, the BPI is promulgated as a statement of purchasing policy and as a body of interpretative regulations governing the conduct of BPA purchasing activities. It is significantly different from the Federal Acquisition Regulation, and reflects BPA’s private sector approach to purchasing the goods and services that it requires. BPA’s financial assistance operations are conducted under 16 U.S.C. 839 et seq. and 16 U.S.C. 839 et
seq. The BFAI express BPA’s financial assistance policy. The BFAI also comprise BPA’s rules governing implementation of the principles provided in the following Federal Regulations and/or OMB circulars:

2 CFR part 220 Cost Principles for Educational Institutions (CircularA–21);

2 CFR part 225 Cost Principles for State, Local and Indian Tribal Governments (Circular A–87);

Grants and Cooperative Agreements with State and Local Governments (Circular A–102);

Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements with Institutions of HigherEducation, Hospitals and Other NonProfit Organizations (Circular A–110);

2 CFR part 230 Cost Principles for Non-Profit Organizations (Circular A– 122); and

Audits of States, Local Governments and Non-Profit Organizations (Circular A–133)

BPA’s solicitations and contracts include notice of applicability and availability of the BPI and the BFAI, as appropriate, for the information for offerors on particular purchases or financial assistance transactions.

**DOE Materials-Based Hydrogen Storage Summit: Defining Pathways**  **for Onboard Automotive Applications**

**AGENCY :**  Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of Energy (DOE).

**ACTION :**  Notice of public workshop.

**SUMMARY :**  This notice announces a public workshop for interested parties to learn about recent results from DOE’s materials-based hydrogen storage system modeling efforts. In addition, DOE intends to gather input from workshop participants to identify hydrogen storage material development pathways and potential future areas of research. This input will be used to help guide future activities for the DOE Hydrogen Storage Program.

**DATES :**  The workshop will be held Tuesday, January 27, 2015 from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Wednesday, January 28, 2015 from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Registration and a $75 fee is required; Web site address to registration is provided below.

**ADDRESSES :**  National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Research Support Facility, 15013 Denver West Parkway Golden, CO 80401, Attn: Matt Thornton (matthew.thornton@nrel.gov ).

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Questions may be directed to—Ned Stetson, Ph.D., DOE Hydrogen Storage Program Manager at 202–586–9995 or by email at ned.stetson@ee.doe.gov.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in conjunction with the DOE Fuel Cell Technologies Office’s Hydrogen Storage Program (http:// energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2014/11/f19/ fcto

_storage.pdf ), will host apublic workshop titled: DOE Materialsbased Hydrogen Storage Summit: Defining Pathways for Onboard Automotive Applications.

Recent analysis efforts, including results from the Hydrogen Storage Engineering Center of Excellence, identified the material-level characteristics required to meet the DOE system-level performance targets. These results show that although the DOE has invested extensively in hydrogen storage materials development, no material has been identified that, when incorporated into a complete system, can meet the challenging DOE performance targets.

Fuel cell electric vehicles are being introduced commercially today. Therefore, if materials-based storage technologies are to be employed on consumer vehicles in the future, it is imperative that the development of hydrogen storage materials be accelerated and efforts focused on pathways with the highest probability of success. Through an understanding of the material characteristics needed to meet system performance targets, it is expected that material development strategies can be optimized to meet the DOE hydrogen storage targets.

In summary, this workshop will serve two main objectives:

(1) Disseminate recent results from DOE Hydrogen Storage system modeling efforts and discuss their implications on hydrogen storage materials development efforts.

(2) Gather input from meeting participants to identify hydrogen storage materials development pathways and potential future areas of research which will lead to the highest probability of success. This input will be used to help guide future activities for the DOE Hydrogen Storage Program.

To register, please visit: http://www. nrel.gov/ap/h2-storage-summit/. Please note that registration is required for all meeting attendees. Cash or check payment of $75 will be collected on the morning of the first day of the meeting.
