Capturing carbon from the air, converting captured carbon to fuel and storing carbon in soil and biomass.

Developing new fuels and expanding the possibilities of existing ones through R&D and lifecycle analysis.

Pioneering solutions for industry, transportation, power plants and more

Expanding the boundaries of carbon-free sources of energy such as nuclear, wind, water, solar and geothermal

Exploring every aspect of energy storage, from discovering and scaling up new materials to battery recycling.

Capturing the fuel of the future.

Biological threats, whether naturally occurring or manmade, have the power to disrupt and cause catastrophic harm to human populations.

Our scientists prepare environmental impact statements to help the nation create a framework for developing renewable energy capabilities on public lands.

EVS improves predictions and measurements of the ecological effects of human development and advances new and better strategies that preserve and protect our natural resources.

As alternative energy technologies such as wind, solar, and geothermal become increasingly important, EVS research enhances our understanding of the environmental impacts of these technologies through life cycle analyses.
