The proposed project is not eligible

for financial assistance under a recent,

current or planned solicitation because

the funding program, the Energy Related

Invention Program (ERIP), has been

structured since its beginning in 1975 to

operate without competitive

solicitations because the authorizing

Financial Assistance Award: Tiby M.

Martin

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of

Energy announces that pursuant to 10

CFR 600.6(a)(2) it is making a financial

assistance award under Grant Number

DE–FG01–95EE15620 to Tiby M.

Martin. The proposed grant will provide

funding in the estimated amount of

$99,000 by the Department of Energy for

the purpose of saving energy through

development of the inventor’s ‘‘High

Pressure Common Rail System’’ that

will enable development of future

higher efficiency, low emissions diesel

engines. This award will be made 14

calendar days after publication to allow

for public comment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Department of Energy has determined in

accordance with 10 CFR 600.14(e)(1)

that the unsolicited application for

financial assistance submitted by Tiby

M. Martin is meritorious based on the

general evaluation required by 10 CFR

600.14(d) and the proposed project

represents a unique idea that would not

be eligible for financial assistance under

a recent, current or planned solicitation.

This new high pressure technology will

provide better fuel atomization and

shorter duration therefore achieving a

more complete fuel burn resulting in

improved fuel economy and cleaner

emissions. The effort will be toward the

development of a prototype system

consisting of the common rail with

injectors and electronic control module

which will then be tested across pump

speeds, injection pressures and fuel

outputs. The proposed project is not

eligible for financial assistance under a

recent, current or planned solicitation

because the funding program, the

Energy Related Invention Program

(ERIP), has been structured since its

beginning in 1975 to operate without

competitive solicitations because the

authorizing legislation directs ERIP to

provide support for worthy ideas

submitted by the public. The program

has never issued and has no plans to

issue a competitive solicitation.

Financial Assistance Award: Materials

Research, Inc.

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of

Energy announces that pursuant to 10

CFR 600.6(a)(2) it is making a financial

assistance award under Grant Number

DE–FG01–95EE15388 to Materials

Research, Inc. The proposed grant will

provide funding in the estimated

amount of $89,500 by the Department of

Energy for the purpose of saving energy

through development of the inventor’s

patented energy efficient process for

producing powders of metal elements

and alloys from aqueous solution. This

process has the potential to be a more

energy efficient method for producing

metal parts and creating new alloys of

metals previously regarded as

incompatible. This award will be made

14 calendar days after publication to

allow for public comment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Department of Energy has determined in

accordance with 10 CFR 600.14(e)(1)

that the unsolicited application for

financial assistance submitted by

Materials Research, Inc. is meritorious

based on the general evaluation required

by 10 CFR 600.14(d) and the proposed

project represents a unique idea that

would not be eligible for financial

assistance under a recent, current or

planned solicitation. The new

technology enables the production of

metal powders for the fabrication of

metal parts without requiring sintering

of materials in the powder production

process, and has shown success in the

production of homogenous powders of

metals previously regarded as

incompatible in alloying. The proposed

project is not eligible for financial

assistance under a recent, current or

planned solicitation because the

funding program, the Energy Related

Invention Program (ERIP), has been

structured since its beginning in 1975 to

operate without competitive

solicitations because the authorizing

legislation directs ERIP to provide

G. Thorpe

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of

Energy announces that pursuant to 10

CFR 600.6(a)(2) it is making a financial

assistance award under Grant Number

DE–FG01–95EE15636 to Douglas G.

Thorpe. The proposed grant will

provide funding in the estimated

amount of $99,093 by the Department of

Energy for the purpose of saving energy

through development of the inventor’s

‘‘Flywheel Electric Battery’’ energy

storage technology for hybrid vehicles

and utility load leveling. This award

will be made 14 calendar days after
Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 73 / Monday, April 17, 1995 / Notices 19241

publication to allow for public

comment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Department of Energy has determined in

accordance with 10 CFR 600.14(e)(1)

that the unsolicited application for

financial assistance submitted by

Douglas G. Thorpe is meritorious based

on the general evaluation required by 10

CFR 600.14(d) and the proposed project

represents a unique idea that would not

be eligible for financial assistance under

a recent, current or planned solicitation.

The new technology is expected to

provide energy savings by storing

mechanical energy. The mechanical

energy can later be recovered as either

mechanical or electrical energy. The

energy storage system is targeted for

hybrid electric vehicles and

uninteruptable power supplies. The

flywheel system design, which focuses

on cost-effectiveness and component

integration, is regarded as employing a

superior design when compared to

competing systems. The proposed

project is not eligible for financial

assistance under a recent, current or

planned solicitation because the

funding program, the Energy Related

Invention Program (ERIP), has been

structured since its beginning in 1975 to

operate without competitive

solicitations because the authorizing

legislation directs ERIP to provide

support for worthy ideas submitted by

the public. The program has never
