Opportunity Information: Apply for FAA COE AJFE
The "Center of Excellence for Alternative Jet Fuels and Environment" (FAA COE AJFE) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) focused on research and development related to alternative jet fuels and their environmental impacts. The program is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means award recipients should expect an active partnership with the FAA during the course of the work, including coordination on technical direction, milestones, reporting, and how results are used to support aviation policy, standards, and operational decision-making. The overall intent is to advance science and technology that can help aviation reduce environmental impacts through the development, evaluation, and deployment support of alternative jet fuel pathways and related environmental research.
Eligibility is limited to private institutions of higher education, indicating the program is designed to leverage university research capacity, specialized labs, and faculty expertise, often while training graduate students and building long-term research capability. The funding activity category spans energy, environment, and broader science and technology research and development, aligning the program with applied and translational work that can inform real-world aviation outcomes. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 20.109, which is tied to FAA research and development assistance.
Key funding details indicate a sizable maximum award level, with an award ceiling of $20,000,000. The opportunity also lists an expected 200 awards, suggesting the program may support a broad portfolio of projects, potentially ranging from smaller targeted studies to larger multi-year research efforts, depending on FAA priorities and the cooperative agreement structure. The original closing date is September 30, 2024, and the opportunity record shows a creation date of November 13, 2023. Taken together, this points to a research grant program that is intended to fund a substantial number of university-led projects in areas connected to alternative jet fuels and environmental considerations relevant to aviation, with the FAA playing a hands-on role in guiding and integrating the research into broader agency goals.Apply for FAA COE AJFE
