About us

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) is dedicated to minimizing the environmental impacts of fossil fuels while working toward net-zero emissions. FECM’s programs use research, development, demonstration, and deployment (RDD&D) approaches to advance technologies to reduce carbon emissions and other environmental impacts of fossil fuel production and use. The Office is committed to improving the conditions of communities impacted by the legacy of fossil fuel use and to supporting a healthy economic transition that accelerates the growth of good-paying jobs. FECM has approximately 1,000 scientists, engineers, technicians, and administrative staff. Its headquarters offices are in downtown Washington, D.C. and Germantown, MD. The organization also includes the National Energy Technology Laboratory, the only government-owned and government-operated lab, with offices in Morgantown, WV, Pittsburgh, PA, Sugar Land, TX, Albany, OR, and Anchorage, AK.

  • 🆕 ⭐ ⭐ Biden-Harris Administration Invests Additional $10 Million To Build Domestic Supply Chain for Critical Minerals and Materials ⭐ ⭐ 📋 DOE announced nearly $10 million for two projects that will help lower the costs and reduce the environmental impact of producing rare earth elements and other critical minerals and materials from coal, coal wastes, and coal by-products. Funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the selected projects will help meet the growing demand for critical minerals and materials in the United States, while reducing our reliance on foreign supply chains. 💡 Rare earth elements and other critical minerals and materials are incorporated into many products, including U.S.-manufactured clean energy technologies—such as solar panels, wind turbines, electric vehicles, and hydrogen fuel cells—that are advancing President Biden’s historic climate agenda. ➡️ https://bit.ly/3Y5BhPC #ICYMI🗣️

  • 🌟 🌟 NOAA, DOE Sign Agreement to Advance Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal 🌟 🌟 📋 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and DOE signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) on future collaborations regarding marine carbon dioxide removal research and development. 🌎 As a climate solution, marine carbon dioxide removal is an important pathway to achieve the broader Biden Administration goal for the U.S. to reach net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases by 2050. 💡 This MOA will formalize collaboration between NOAA and DOE to share expertise on research and technology development. ✔️ The MOA makes clear that combining the ocean science expertise of NOAA with the carbon dioxide removal and energy science and technology expertise of DOE will be a powerful way to advance the state of marine carbon dioxide removal science and strengthen the existing relationship between both agencies. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gFumpxHr #ICYMI🗣️
