The United States Department of Energy (DOE) announced in May that
it’s launching three Energy
Innovation Hubs, designed to “help advance highly promising areas of
energy science and engineering from the early stage of research to the
point where the technology can be handed off to the private sector.”
These hubs not only demonstrate the nation’s commitment to tackling our energy and climate challenges, but they also represent an innovation endeavor not often associated with the U.S. government.
Each of the three hubs will tackle a different energy challenge in a highly collaborative way that welcomes diversity of thought. They will “bring together top researchers from academia, industry and the government laboratories with expertise that spans multiple scientific and engineering disciplines under the leadership of a dynamic scientist-manager.”
