National Industrial Competitiveness through Energy, Environment, and Economics
Published on AidPage by IDILOGIC on Jun 24, 2005
Purpose of this program:
To generate new processes and/or equipment that can significantly reduce the use of energy and energy intensive feed-stocks and reduce the generation of wastes in industry. To achieve these objectives, DOE solicits projects that do the following: 1) Encourage accelerated industrial demonstration, deployment, and dissemination of energy efficiency and cleaner production technologies; 2) implement efficiency improvements in processes, material inputs, and waste streams; 3) demonstrate successful industrial applications of innovative cleaner production techniques in conjunction with energy-efficient technologies; 4) coordinate and integrate the activities of institutions responsible for energy, the environment, and industrial competitiveness at the Federal, regional, State, and local levels; 5) target technologies, processes, and procedures that are transferable to a broad range of applications within and across industrial sectors; 6) identify and develop strategies to overcome barriers that currently inhibit energy efficiency or cleaner production techniques and practices in business and industry; 7) enhance industrial competitiveness through the introduction and dissemination of cost-effective, energy-efficient, cleaner production processes, equipment, and practices; and 8) reduce greenhouse gas emissions through pollution prevention in industry.
