Energy and Clean Tech Connections

January 2009

In the January edition of Mintz Levin’s Energy and Clean Tech Connections, we’ve gathered recent information from a wide variety of sources in an effort to keep you abreast of what’s new in the world of clean energy. We draw your attention to the latest industry developments, news from Beacon Hill to Capitol Hill, grant opportunities, and upcoming events.

The past month has seen renewed activity in renewable energy law-making in Massachusetts and the nation. First, in December the Department of Energy announced a funding opportunity of up to $200 million for integrated biorefineries. In Massachusetts, the Department of Energy Resources released regulations changing the state’s Renewable Energy Portfolio Standard (RPS) to expand support for renewable energy technologies. For more information on the RPS guidelines, see Federal and State Happenings. In addition, last week Governor Deval Patrick unveiled a plan to build enough wind turbines in Massachusetts by 2020 to supply energy to 800,000 homes.

David O’Connor, Senior Vice President for Energy and Clean Technology at ML Strategies, recently co-authored an article with Jurgen Weiss that appeared in The Boston Globe. In the article, the two suggest that a federal carbon cap-and-trade system. similar to the one in place through the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, could help provide a solution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the long term without increasing energy costs. In addition, Tom Burton, the chair of the Energy and Clean Technology practice group, was also recently quoted in a Financial Times article regarding the future of cleantech investment under the Obama administration.

Mintz Levin would like to announce a record-setting year in cleantech financing for the Energy and Clean Technology practice group. In the past year the group has closed 35 deals totaling approximately $400 million, for a total of 82 transactions totaling in excess of $1.25 billion since the beginning of 2006. At the same time, we’d like to congratulate client GMZ Energy on completing one of the last deals of the year; its Series B financing led by BP Alternative Energy. GMZ Energy is a pioneer in creating nanotechnology-based materials for a new generation of cleaner, more energy efficient, thermoelectric products.

Finally , it has been a record year overall for the industry; for more details, Greentech Media has published reviews of the year in Wind, Solar, Biofuels, Smart Grid, and Green Building, as well as an industry overview.

We hope that you enjoy this month’s edition of the newsletter.

DOE Funding Opportunity of up to $200M for Pilot and Demonstration Scale Biorefinery Projects

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced the issuance of a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for up to $200 million over six years (FY 2009 - FY 2014), subject to annual appropriations, to support the development of pilot and demonstration-scale biorefineries including the use of feedstocks such as algae and production of advanced biofuels such as bio-butanol, green gasoline and other innovative biofuels.

The FOA has two topic areas for biorefinery development:

  • Pilot-scale, minimum throughput of one dry tonne of feedstock per day with a minimum non-federal cost-share at 30 percent.
  • Demonstration-scale minimum throughput of 50 dry tonnes of feedstock per day, with a minimum non-federal cost-share at 50 percent.

DOE anticipates making approximately 5-12 awards under this announcement, depending on the topic area, and size of awards.

Application Deadline: Mandatory letters of intent - February 20, 2009; completed applications - April 30, 2009

DOE Loan Guarantee Program: Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy, and Advanced Transmission and Distribution Technologies Solicitation

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced three solicitations for a total of up to $30.5 billion in federal loan guarantees for projects that employ advanced energy technologies that avoid, reduce or sequester air pollutants or greenhouse gas emissions. The three solicitations are in the areas of energy efficiency, renewable energy and advanced transmission and distribution technologies; nuclear power facilities; and advanced nuclear facilities for the ‘front-end’ of the nuclear fuel cycle.

The loan guarantee process is organized into four phases: application, project evaluation, conditional commitment, and final approval and closing of a Loan Guarantee Agreement. Selection criteria for the clean energy projects under these solicitations will focus on a project’s ability to avoid, reduce or sequester air pollutants or greenhouse gas emissions; the speed with which the technologies can be commercialized; the prospect of repayment of the guaranteed debt; and the potential for long-lasting success of these technologies in the marketplace.

Application Deadline: February 26, 2009

The announcement will address six topic areas:

  • turbine research, development and testing;
  • distributed wind technologies;
  • market acceptance efforts;
  • environmental research and sitting strategies;
  • transmission analysis, planning and assessments; and
  • workforce development.

The Renewable Fuels Foundation Offers
Its First Grants for Ethanol Production

The Renewable Fuels Foundation (RFF) Board of Directors funds those research projects that have clear goals and measurable outcomes with benchmarks that will advance the science of ethanol production. While sound research should be the basis for all grant applications, the RFF will only support projects that directly enhance domestic production of ethanol and the efficient use of co-products. One grant will be awarded for $150,000, of which $75,000 will be made available over two years. Viable projects may qualify for continued funding past this time frame.

Research project proposals must have a national implication, not local. The RFF prefers to fund national model projects, thereby making a bigger impact to the US ethanol market.

Business Expansion Initiative

Business Expansion Initiative (BEI) supports the development and expansion of the production capacity of renewable energy technology firms in Massachusetts. BEI provides secured debt capital to expansion-stage companies for new renewable energy product design and manufacturing financing. BEI loans may only be made to companies located within Massachusetts.

The Carbon Trust

The Carbon Trust, via an incubator scheme, helps prepare promising early stage companies in the UK to raise the investment needed to grow their business. They work with early-stage companies who have developed innovative carbon-saving technologies, demonstrating commercial potential and high-growth potential. The Carbon Trust is funded by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (BERR), the Scottish Government, the Welsh Assembly Government and Invest Northern Ireland. The scheme aims to create investment opportunities in technology start-up companies developing low-carbon technologies.

Companies accepted for incubation will receive up to £60,000 of financial support from the Carbon Trust over a 12–18 month period. The Carbon Trust incubator scheme, which accelerates the commercialization of promising low-carbon businesses, has announced partnerships with business advisory firm Grant Thornton and a commercial law firm local to Cambridge (Mills & Reeve LLP), to provide corporate finance and legal advisory support to its incubator companies.
