DOE research seeks to understand basic chemical, physical, and biological
processes of the earth’s atmosphere, land, and oceans and how these processes
may be affected by energy production and use, primarily the emission of carbon
dioxide from fossil fuel combustion.
Understanding global climate change and the
ability to predict climate over decades or centuries will enable the development
of science-based solutions to reduce and minimize the impacts of climate change
and better plan for the nation’s future energy needs.

Conference tackles interstate transmission
The US electricity grid is strained to its limit, and the nation's windiest and sunniest places are rarely near cities that generate high demand. Finding ways to string new power lines across several states is a challenge for even the most creative regulators and energy analysts determined to increase America's use of renewable energy.

Both directions at once
The challenge of controlling climate change is a goal that, to many, appears to be at odds with the equally important goal of energy security. However, the idea that the two goals are somehow mutually exclusive is not one accepted by ORNL energy researcher David Greene. "We don't want to sacrifice one for the other," he says. "We want -- and we believe it possible -- to achieve environmental goals and energy security goals at the same time.
