US invests in Energy Frontier Research Centers | Leonardo ENERGY - 0 views

  • In August, U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu announced the delivery of $377 million in funding for 46 new Energy Frontier Research Centers. The centers will be hosted by universities, national laboratories, non-profit organizations, and private companies. The research domains that were chosen offer a good sampling of those technologies the US Department of Energy (DOE) sees as potentially important in the energy landscape of the future. The funded projects are focussed on: Improving the efficiency of photovoltaic systems; with particular projects dedicated to hybrid inorganic/organic PV cells and nanometre-sized PV cells Advanced nuclear techniques Carbon capture and geological storage (CCS) Hydrogen, including the production of hydrogen as well as hydrogen fuel cells Biomass, including energy-rich plants and the conversion of biomass into chemicals and fuels Energy storage systems Superconductivity (1 project)
