Details:
The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), within the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), invests in cutting-edge research, development, demonstration, and deployment (RDD&D) activities focused on renewable electricity generation, energy efficiency, and sustainable transportation. EERE’s mission is to accelerate RDD&D of technologies and solutions that enable the United States to equitably transition to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, economy-wide by no later than 2050, and to ensure the clean energy economy benefits all Americans, creating good paying jobs for the American people—especially workers and communities impacted by the energy transition and those historically underserved by the energy system and overburdened by pollution.
EERE funds Clean Energy Manufacturing Innovation Institutes (Institutes) as part of an effort to strengthen U.S. manufacturing competitiveness by developing advanced, energy-efficient technologies. Institutes are the cornerstone of Manufacturing USA, previously known as the National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI), which was proposed in 2012 in recognition of the vital role the advanced manufacturing sector plays in driving the U.S. economy. DOE establishes Institutes in areas where a consortium has been determined to have high potential to address a significant and potentially impactful clean energy-related advanced manufacturing opportunity through public engagement, requests for information, and internal analysis.
