The Energy Department Is Opening a New Office For Renewable Demonstration Projects

The Energy Department on Tuesday announced a new office devoted to renewable energy demonstration projects, funded by the recently signed bipartisan infrastructure law.
The law, which Biden signed in November, provides $20 billion for the creation of the office, which will fund demonstration project for technologies such as carbon capture and renewable hydrogen. The funds come from a broader $62 billion pot to speed up renewable energy development within the department.
