WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) and National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) announced $2.5 million in funding for four training and research projects to be conducted at U.S colleges and universities.

An award-winning National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) team that assists and guides a nationwide network of Clean Cities coalitions played key roles in the National Clean Cities Training Workshop in Denver, Colorado that attracted more than 180 participants from around the nation who fine-tuned their expertise in strategies for advancing alternative, and energy-efficient transportation fuels and technologies.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Biden-Harris Administration, through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), announced yesterday the launch of four programs that will help build a commercially viable, just, and responsible carbon dioxide removal industry in the United States.

As demand for rare earth elements (REEs) and critical minerals (CMs) increases, research completed with NETL support and oversight has advanced the development of a lightweight tool that can be carried into the field to measure concentrations of these valuable materials in coal wastes and byproducts.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) and the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) today announced $5.3 million in funding for five cutting-edge projects that will advance research supporting the domestic production of rare earth elements and other critical minerals.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) and the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) today announced $20 million in funding for projects that will improve stakeholder access to region-specific information and technical assistance regarding the commercial deployment of carbon capture, transport, conversion, and storage technologies across the United States.

When your research team’s focus is to develop the next generation of advanced carbon dioxide (CO2) capture concepts to achieve the goal of a carbon-pollution-free power sector by 2035, a visit to a renowned facility where colleagues have completed more than 129,000 hours of technology testing is like a trip to a carbon capture hall of fame.

NETL project partners Tennessee Technological University, the West Virginia Clean Cities Program and the National Alternative Fuels Training Consortium of WVU Energy Institute, are reimagining transportation in rural America by working to build an electric vehicle (EV) ecosystem in Appalachia, and these efforts recently took a crucial step forward in Marion County, West Virginia.

Two U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Laboratories that teamed to provide an award winning open-source software tool that can identify the best ways to manage, treat and — when possible — reuse produced water from oil and gas operations, have published a framework manuscript providing insights about how the project can offer environmentally sustainable, and lower-cost approaches for handling oil and gas wastewater.

NETL’s Thomas Sarkus demonstrated the importance of giving back to ensure the next generation of engineers and scientists is prepared to advance crucial energy technologies when he addressed students at Southern Illinois University Carbondale.
