The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and the Gas Technology Institute (GTI) are together addressing the need to accelerate development and demonstration of low- and zero-carbon energy technologies.
The Low-Carbon Resources Initiative (LCRI) will focus on large-scale deployment to 2030 and beyond. Fundamental advances in a variety of low-carbon electric generation technologies and low-carbon chemical energy carriers — such as clean hydrogen, bioenergy, and renewable natural gas — are needed to enable affordable pathways to economy-wide decarbonization.
Mike Howard, CEO of EPRI, emphasizes that in next five years, the LCRI will identify research development and demonstrate technology advancements needed to transition to a deep decarbonized economy. This initiative is designed to inform and guide the energy sector through global collaboration across the energy industries.
The virtual roundtable was held in September 1, 2020.
