DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

[OE Docket No. EA–457] 

Application to Export Electric Energy; 

ADG Group Inc. 

AGENCY: Office of Electricity, 

Department of Energy. 

ACTION: Notice of application. 

SUMMARY: ADG Group Inc. (ADG or 

Applicant) has applied for authorization 

to transmit electric energy from the 

United States to Canada pursuant to the 

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– 

20, U.S. Department of Energy, 1000 

Independence Avenue SW, Washington, 

DC 20585–0350. Because of delays in 

handling conventional mail, it is 

recommended that documents be 

transmitted by overnight mail, by 

electronic mail to Electricity.Exports@

hq.doe.gov, or by facsimile to 202–586– 

8008. 

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 

(42 U.S.C. 7151(b) and 7172(f)) and 

require authorization under section 

202(e) of the Federal Power Act (16 

U.S.C. 824a(e)). 

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 

transmission facilities to be utilized by 

the Applicant have previously been 

authorized by Presidential Permits 

issued pursuant to Executive Order 

10485, as amended, and are appropriate 

for open access transmission by third 

parties. 

Procedural Matters: Any person 

desiring to be heard in this proceeding 

should file a comment or protest to the 

application at the address provided 

above. Protests should be filed in 

accordance with Rule 211 of the Federal 

Energy Regulatory Commission’s Rules 

of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 

385.211). Any person desiring to 

become a party to these proceedings 

should file a motion to intervene at the 

above address in accordance with FERC 

Rule 214 (18 CFR 385.214). Five (5) 

copies of such comments, protests, or 

motions to intervene should be sent to 

the address provided above on or before 

the date listed above. 

Comments and other filings 

concerning ADG’s application to export 

electric energy to Canada should be 

clearly marked with OE Docket No. EA– 

457. An additional copy is to be 

provided to both Xue Chao (David) Cai,

Suite 400, Toronto, Ontario, Canada 

M5K 0A1, and Peter P. Thieman, 

Dentons US LLP, 1900 K Street NW, 

Washington, DC 20006. 

A final decision will be made on this 

application after the environmental 

impacts have been evaluated pursuant 

to DOE’s National Environmental Policy 

Act Implementing Procedures (10 CFR 

part 1021) and after a determination is 

made by DOE that the proposed action 

will not have an adverse impact on the 

sufficiency of supply or reliability of the 

U.S. electric power supply system. 

Copies of this application will be 

made available, upon request, for public 

inspection and copying at the address 

provided above, by accessing the

Notice of Request for Information (RFI) 

on H2@Scale (Hydrogen at Scale): 

Determining Opportunities To 

Facilitate Wide-Scale Hydrogen 

Adoption for Energy Security and 

Economic Growth 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, Department of 

Energy (DOE). 

ACTION: Request for information (RFI). 

SUMMARY: 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 

limited to no more than 10MB in size. 

The complete RFI [DE–FOA–0001965]

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. 

Confidential Business Information: 

Because information received in 

response to this RFI may be used to 

structure future programs, funding and/ 

or otherwise be made available to the 

public, respondents are strongly advised 

to not include any information in their
