RFP 25-02
The Institute is seeking proposals for demonstration, verification and validation (DV&V) projects that will be expected to demonstrate the technology meets the performance levels required by the supply chain and the economic targets accepted by the market. This RFP represents up to $6 million investment in supplemental funding.
The REMADE Institute®
In partnership with industry, academia, trade organizations, and national labs, REMADE® and its members develop technologies to enhance U.S. manufacturing competitiveness, increase material recovery and efficiency, and strengthen the resilience of the U.S. supply chain.
Technology Focused
Major Initiatives
The REMADE Institute® is leading six major technology initiatives to increase the reuse, remanufacturing and recycling of energy-intensive materials and meet the nation’s multiple manufacturing, supply chain, energy and economic goals.
Technology Projects
REMADE® has invested nearly $100 million in nearly 100 advanced manufacturing research and development projects to increase U.S. manufacturing competitiveness, strengthen domestic supply chain resilience, and grow the American workforce. Browse our project database to learn more.
Critical Minerals Recovery & Recycling
REMADE® and its members are developing advanced technologies to recover and recycle critical and key materials for U.S. manufacturing, including 11 critical minerals.
Did You Know?
Recycling is indispensable to the security & sustainability of critical minerals
Recycling reduces new mine development needs by 40% for copper and cobalt, and by 25% for lithium and nickel by 2050. The market value of recycled energy transition minerals [is projected to grow] fivefold, reaching $200Â billion by 2050.
More Than the Power of One
Together, we have the power to accomplish what no one organization could on its own.

Accelerating the Transition to a Circular Economy
Today, manufacturing accounts for 25% of U.S. energy consumption at a cost to U.S. manufacturers of $150 billion.Â
Our experts, together with our partners, are working to reduce those amounts and, in the process, enhance U.S. manufacturing competitiveness, increase material efficiency, and strengthen the resiliency of the U.S. supply chain.
