LWG Energy Portfolio Analysis The Context: Advancing Four, Broad National Energy Policy Goals 1. Diversify our energy mix and reduce dependence on foreign petroleum, thereby reducing vulnerability to disruption and increasing the flexibility of the market to meet U. S. needs 2. Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental impacts (water use, land use, criteria pollutants) from our energy production and use 3. Create a more flexible, more reliable and higher capacity U. S. energy infrastructure, thereby improving energy services throughout the economy, enabling use of diverse sources, and improving robustness against disruption 4. Improve the energy productivity (or energy efficiency) of the U. S. economy 8
LWG Energy Portfolio Analysis “From the LWG Report” Our assessment highlighted six “headline” conclusions as to DOE’s energy S&T portfolio 1. The highest leverage approach to reducing petroleum imports lies in transportation fuel switching and efficiency improvements • • DOE’s portfolio includes technology options that offer routes to near to mid term material impact (clean Diesel, hybrids, ethanol) Attractive longer-term options may be feasible with significant, but likely achievable, scientific advances (cellulosic ethanol, fuel cells, energy storage) 2. Material reductions in carbon emissions depend on progress in zero net emission electric generation options, and fuel switching / efficiency improvements throughout the economy • • DOE’s applied R&D portfolio can materially improve available technology options in the near to mid term (building technology, hybrid electric drives, biofuels, advance nuclear, zero emissions fossil) Emerging scientific advances offer credible promise of transforming / breakthrough technologies in the longer term (Utility scale solar, bioenergy feedstocks, bio-mimetic energy conversion) 9
LWG Energy Portfolio Analysis “From the LWG Report” Our assessment highlighted six “headline” conclusions as to DOE’s energy S&T portfolio 3. Several areas of science offer great promise for advances that could transform energy technology • • • Design and synthesis of materials exploiting nanoscale understanding Predictive modeling of complex systems Scattering facilities for in-situ molecular characterization 4. Two areas of science may merit consideration for increased attention within the portfolio • Systems and synthetic biology • Catalysis / separations of chemical transformations 10
LWG Energy Portfolio Analysis “From the LWG Report” Our assessment highlighted six “headline” conclusions as to DOE’s energy S&T portfolio 5. There are two significant “gaps” in the portfolio that may retard progress towards national goals: • CO 2 sequestration science & technology • Next-generation electric grid technologies 6. Refining R&D portfolio management practices could accelerate progress and create a “pipeline” of innovations targeted on national priorities • • Focus on defining critical outcomes to impact national goals Strengthen horizontal / crosscutting integration Align research strategies across the spectrum of technology maturity from discovery to technology deployment Consider “use-inspired” science initiatives to drive breakthrough discoveries into applications 11

LWG Energy Portfolio Analysis “From the LWG Report” Mission impact requires translation from discovery to innovation to the market • DOE R&D faces two broadly recognized gaps: – Translation of new concepts arising out of basic research to conceptual stage but targeted R&D – Translation of near-mature technologies from working prototypes to commercial deployment • Both of these are “bi-directional” issues – Basic science creates entirely new technology possibilities – Technology efforts identify key issues requiring improved scientific understanding or new approaches – Improving technology performance suggests new deployment opportunities – Market feedback helps set technology performance requirements 14

LWG Energy Portfolio Analysis Issues for Next Cycle: Technology • Interaction of energy sources: “fuel switching” – Coal-gas-nuclear-renewable for electricity – Petroleum-biofuel for transportation – Alternative transportation energy options • Interaction of energy chains – Electricity-petroleum-natural gas-biofuel-hydrogen • Quantitative analysis of energy system – Market inertia, ripple effect across sources and chains 16
LWG Energy Portfolio Analysis Issues for Next Cycle: Science • Greater analysis of science for energy solutions – Achieve revolutionary breakthroughs, not evolutionary increments: factor of 10, not 10% – Look beyond existing technology-centric directions • New approaches for managing the basic-applied interface – Establish greater synergy – Maintain separate identities • Emphasize discovery science distinct from use-inspired basic research – Advance the frontier - small, fast, complex, . . . – New knowledge unexpected new uses – What are the grand challenges of discovery science? 17
LWG Energy Portfolio Analysis The role of science Basic Science Vision Incremental advances in the state of the art of existing energy technologies will not meet the nation's future energy and environmental security challenges. Revolutionary innovations are needed, both in the energy technologies themselves and in our understanding of the fundamental science that enables their operation. Vibrant fundamental science programs generate revolutionary innovations in two ways: (i) by discovery-driven advances in the frontier of knowledge, enabling new paradigms and unexpected opportunities for disruptive energy technologies, and (ii) by use-inspired research targeting specific areas where incomplete understanding blocks technological progress. DOE should maintain strong programs in both areas that sustain US leadership in science. Basic-applied interactions are a fertile source of innovation. DOE should develop new ways to stimulate translational research and creative connections across the basic-applied interface. 18
