DOE Announces $29.5M for Improved Bioenergy Resource Recovery and Conversion Systems
The DOE has awarded $29.5 million to 15 projects to improve the current science and infrastructure for utilizing waste streams, often disproportionately located in underserved communities, and support the development of improved organisms and inorganic catalysts for the production of valuable biofuels and bioproducts that can benefit the local energy economy. This effort will advance the Biden Administration’s goals to deliver an equitable, clean energy future, and put the US on a path to achieve net-zero emissions, economy-wide, by no later than 2050.
NSF funds new projects to study local and global impacts of a rapidly changing Arctic
NSF has awarded a new round of grants under the Navigating the New Arctic (NNA) program. The awards support research projects to study the Arctic's changing natural, built and social environments. Through NNA, researchers in science, engineering and education disciplines are working together to address some of the most pressing challenges on the planet. Research grants are focused on actionable results; incubator grants will allow teams to carry out projects of a larger scope in the future.
