Overview
The goals of this FOA are to:
• Further develop broad, foundational, manufacturing “platform” technologies and address gaps and barriers that are currently limiting use of composite materials in clean energy and decarbonization-related applications with wind energy applications as the primary FOA focus;
• Enable additive manufacturing processes for rapid prototyping, tooling, fabrication, and testing of large wind blades;
• Apply additive manufacturing to non-blade wind turbine components; and
• Mature nascent technologies, processes, and methods that improve one or more aspects of advanced composites manufacturing, including automation, and sustainability (including recycling) of these materials.
