We chatted with one of the Energy Department's leading molecular biologists, Dr. Amanda Barry, who is working to create biofuels from algae at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Algae shows great potential as a homegrown and renewable fuel source. Here's why it will be a big part of our nation’s energy mix sooner than you might expect.
Summary and conclusions of the 2015 Quadrennial Technology Review.
The chapter describes a flexible framework that can incorporate some or all of the methods listed above. This framework would be suitable for analyzing the impact of a RDD&D portfolio under a complex set of objectives and requirements.
This chapter is a survey of how the Department of Energy (DOE) and the DOE-SC support energy technology through investment in basic science research and development of complex and unique experimental and computational capabilities. The scientific disco...
This chapter focuses mainly on technologies applicable to light and heavy duty road vehicles, and surveys other modes as well as systems-level technologies for the improvement of energy use across the transportation system.
This chapter examines the opportunities for improvements in energy and materials utilization within three spaces: individual manufacturing processes and unit operations; goods-producing facilities, including manufacturing business processes; and manufa...
