Section 40007 of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (P.L. 117-169) directs the Secretary of Transportation to implement a “competitive grant program for eligible entities to carry out projects located in the United States that produce, transport, blend, or store sustainable aviation fuel, or develop, demonstrate, or apply low-emission aviation technologies.” The Department of Transportation (DOT), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seeking to establish this new grant program—named the Fueling Aviation’s Sustainable Transition (FAST) Grant Program—and collect project proposals via a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). FAST will have elements focused on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), to be termed FAST-SAF, and elements focused on low-emission aviation technologies, to be termed FAST-Tech. The program aims to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) associated with the aviation sector, in line with the net-zero GHG by 2050 goal outlined in the U.S. Aviation Climate Action Plan. The amount of available funding for the two programs is $244.53M and $46.53M for FAST-SAF and FAST-Tech, respectively. The NOFO will solicit project proposals from eligible entities. The collected information is required for FAA to evaluate proposals and distribute IRA funds to address U.S. climate goals.
