DOE does science and innovation at its finest. And that’s what our world is demanding right now because we’re in the midst of crises that only science and innovation can solve. Americans are struggling to provide for their families and protect their loved ones from a deadly pandemic, while cataclysmic storms, wildfires, droughts, and floods leave them at the mercy of the elements. The climate emergency is intensifying every single day while ravaging our planet, costing us billions in clean-up, and putting our national security at risk.
We’re going to have to fix this. It’s on this generation, this administration, you and me, to get climate change under control so that we can protect this planet for our children. That’s why President Biden has laid out the boldest climate agenda in our nation’s history, one that will require robust collaboration across the federal government, the fifty states, and the private sector. And it will rely on the power of science and innovation at a scale the world has never seen before.
President Biden has tasked the Department, his in-house solutions powerhouse, with delivering a cornerstone of his bold plan: the goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. For DOE, that means developing and deploying the technologies that will deliver a clean energy revolution. And for you, that means cheap, abundant clean power delivered on a modern energy grid that is resilient and reliable.
