During 2022, the Company was awarded a research grant from the Department of Energy (“DOE”) for approximately $250 thousand with the completion occurring in March 2023. The purpose of the grant was to produce a research paper for a flexible fuel ultra-low NOx process burner capable of burning 100% hydrogen fuel. The award allowed the Company to request reimbursements for expenditures such as labor, material, and administrative costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized $69 thousand in reimbursements from DOE. The Company did not recognize reimbursements from the DOE for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
