The use of biomass as a renewable fuel source has enabled the U.S. to reduce fossil fuel dependence and provides affordable heat for many middle-and low-income households. However, residential wood heaters such as wood stoves or wood-burning appliances ca
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) awarded $1 million in funding to three projects at minority serving institutions (MSIs) to accelerate U.S. biomanufacturing sector growth. In partnership with the MSI STEM Research &
Algae turn sunlight and carbon dioxide into biochemical energy. These researchers use genetic engineering, analysis, and material science to turn that energy into opportunity.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) hosted the 2023 Project Peer Review April 3-7, 2023, in Denver, CO. During this in-person event, more than 280 projects in BETO’s research, development, and demonstration
To reduce these pollutants, Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO), will oversee a Cooperative Research and Development...
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has released a new Request for Information (RFI) to public stakeholders seeking to improve and enhance federal statistical data collection designed to measure the economic value of the U.S. bioeconomy...
U.S. Energy Secretary Jennifer M. Granholm today announced the launch of the Clean Fuels & Products Shot, which aims to significantly reduce emissions from carbon-based fuels and products critical to our way of life...
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) awarded $3 million in funding for two projects to improve local community waste-to-energy processes and infrastructure. These projects will explore new approaches to beneficially reuse the waste streams as energy,
A new workflow developed by researchers at the Agile BioFoundry (ABF), a U.S. Department of Energy Bioenergy Technologies Office-funded consortium of national laboratories and Agilent Research Laboratories (Agilent) addresses this need. The workflow
In 2019, after three years of fuel and engine research, the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Co-Optimization of Fuels & Engines (Co-Optima) initiative selected and recommended 10 different bio-blendstocks that could be used to make gasoline fuel...
