🏠 Sustainable, affordable housing is within reach for many Americans! Through Berkeley Lab's Entrepreneurship Program, we’re using innovation to ensure homes are well-insulated with affordable, eco-friendly agriculture resources. ➡️ New Clip: Science Bites with Dr. Richmond

The Biden-Harris Administration believes no community is too big or too small to benefit from America’s growing clean energy economy. That's why we've announced a conditional commitment for a loan guarantee of up to $182.6M to IRG Erie—helping ensure local communities in Pennsylvania continue to serve as a bedrock of our energy future for generations to come.

😄 More good news! With $36M, we’re expanding the reach of DOE's Weatherization Assistance Program to expedite the nation’s shift to clean energy through scalable innovations, all while lowering energy costs for low-income households while building a diverse American workforce with good-paying jobs. ⚡️🇺🇸

It’s time to #SaveOnCleanEnergy! We’re partnering with Civic Nation, including 50 businesses and organizations, to ensure consumers and communities across America have the support they need to cut their energy costs and save on clean energy upgrades. ⚡ SaveOnCleanEnergy.org

With $24M, we’re taking another step to strengthen our clean energy workforce! We’re announcing funding for 21 new projects to bolster the development of clean energy workforce training programs—with a focus on jobs that do not require a four-year degree. https://lnkd.in/ecEGyfup

🏠 Here at the Department of Energy, we’re focused on lowering energy bills for people across America. That’s means we’re taking every opportunity to share that tax credits & rebates are available for those looking to make their homes more energy efficient. But what are the differences between those two savings options and how you tap into them? We break it down in this video. ⚡️Go to https://energy.gov/save for more information

Going above the bar to win gold🥇🏃 When it comes to high jumps at the Olympics, physics plays a key role in how athletes compete for a gold medal. ➡️ New Science Bites clip: Dr. Richmond traveled to the Olympic trials ahead of the 2024 Summer Olympics for the scoop.

If you want to learn about batteries and the clean energy transition, you’re in the right place. How are we working to meet the demand for batteries? How are we making them better and cheaper while using less critical minerals? How will batteries help meet the nation’s goal to get to net-zero carbon emissions? Get those answers and more from our newest podcast episode, “Fully Charged: How Batteries Are Combatting the Climate Crisis (Part 2)” 🎧Listen here: https://lnkd.in/eP79Z8aP Part 1: https://lnkd.in/erFttbUx

Since 2002, U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science has sponsored more than 1,900 Community College Internships (CCI) and 15,800 Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internships (SULI). Spring 2025 applications are open now! https://lnkd.in/g-b4DnAw #NationalInternDay #DOESTEM
