The Fuel Cell Technologies Office will present a live webinar entitled "Energy Materials Network (EMN) Lab Consortia Overview" on Monday, November 7, from 12 to 1 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. This webinar will provide an overview of DOE's newly launched Energy Materials Network, a network of consortia of national laboratories that will facilitate closer collaborations in the materials development cycle and enable U.S. manufacturers to deliver innovative, made-in-America products to the world market. In FY17, FCTO is investing over $30 million in EMN consortia that will enhance the accessibility of the national laboratories' unique capabilities, including tools and expertise, in hydrogen production, fuel cells, and storage materials research.
This webinar will discuss how the EMN consortia operate and how they are being integrated into funding opportunity announcements intended for FY17. It will be followed by more detailed webinars wherein specific capabilities and expertise available in each of the three FCTO consortia will be presented.
