The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and Gas Technology Institute (GTI) are embarking on a five-year initiative to accelerate the development and demonstration of low-carbon energy technologies. With increasingly ambitious decarbonization goals from private companies and governments alike, existing technology is not enough to achieve those targets.

The Low-Carbon Resources Initiative (LCRI) is an intern El Salvador Email List ational collaborative spanning the electric and gas sectors that will help advance global, economy-wide deep decarbonization. With 18 anchor sponsors, the LCRI leverages the collaborative research model employed by both EPRI and GTI, bringing industry stakeholders together to conduct clean energy R&D. Seeded with $10 million from the EPRI collaborative, funding for the initiative is expected to be leveraged many times over its $100 million target through public and private collaboration.

Sponsors of the initiative represent a wide swath of the energy industry. These entities include:

American Electric Power
Con Edison
Dominion Energy
Duke Energy
Exelon Corporation
Lincoln Electric System
Los Angeles Department of Water & Power
Missouri River Energy Service
Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems, Americas
National Fuel
New York Power Authority
Portland General Electric
PPL Corporation
Salt River Project
SoCalGas



Southern California Edison
Southern Company
Tennessee Valley Authority
The LCRI is targeting advancements in low-carbon electric generation technologies and low-carbon energy carriers, such as hydrogen, ammonia, synthetic fuels, and biofuels. According to LCRI, this worldwide collaborative will:

Identify and accelerate fundamental development of promising technologies
Demonstrate and assess the performance of key technologies and processes
Inform key stakeholders and the public about technology options and potential pathways to a low-carbon future

LCRI said the initiative represents a key step toward achieving decarbonization goals over the next 30 years.
