The Digest’s 2023 Multi-Slide Guide to the DOE’s overview of the Bioenergy Technologies Office

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Bioenergy Technologies Office (establishes partnerships with key public and private stakeholders to develop technologies for producing cost-competitive advanced biofuels from non-food biomass resources, including cellulosic biomass, algae, and wet waste (e.g., biosolids).

BETO works with a broad spectrum of government, industrial, academic, agricultural, and nonprofit partners across the United States to develop commercially viable, high-performance biofuels, bioproducts, and biopower made from renewable U.S. biomass resources that reduce our dependence on imported oil while enhancing energy security. 

What is BETO up to – what are the goals, the resources, the team, the targets — what is the state of development? BETO director Valerie Reed presented these slides at the DOE Project Peer Review meetings in DC.
