Federal & State Grants



Novomer has been awarded the following federal and state grants to support the commercialization of our CO2-based polymers:

Department of Energy
$2.5M Phase One focused on experiments and preliminary designs for pilot plants to demonstrate the feasibility of capturing and using CO2 exhausted from industrial processes.

Phase Two is a 24-month, $23M project, including a 20 percent industry cost share, in which Novomer and its partners will design, construct, and operate materials creation at pilot-scale, in advance of broad commercialization.

New York State Energy Research & Development (NYSERDA)
$475,000 for two phases of work, included a feasibility study and commercialization activities for the coatings and packaging markets.

National Science Foundation
$400,000 to develop a continuous flow manufacturing process to make CO2-based polymers.
