Mark Rushbrook, global head of Ford Performance Motorsports, told Motorsport.comt that FE was "still on the sheet of paper we are looking at" as it considers an entry into what he called "electrified motorsport".
His comments come a year after Ford was engaged in high-level talks with FE and appeared close to signing up for the series.
"We have been looking very closely through 2018 across all different forms of racing to understand what the options are for electrified motorsport, whether hybrid or full electric," said Rushbrook.
"Given what our cycle plan is for road cars we are very interested in adding an electrified form of motorsport in the near future.
"We continue to study all or most of those options, and I suspect we will be making decisions in early '19."
