The Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) Science, Technology and Policy (STP) Program serves as a next step in the educational and professional development of scientists and engineers by providing opportunities to participate in policy-related projects at DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy in Washington, D.C. Participants will become part of a group of highly-trained scientists and engineers with the education, background, and experience to be part of the workforce that supports the DOE's mission in the future.
The participant will learn how the Water Power Technologies Offices carries out its mission to conduct early stage research and development to advance marine energy and hydropower technology development and gain hands-on experience by applying their knowledge within specific fields of expertise aligned with the Office's work areas. The participant will be placed with the Marine Energy Team within the Water Power Technologies Office, which works to facilitate the development and deployment of these technologies in an environmentally-sound and cost-effective way through focused research and development, stakeholder collaboration, and funding opportunities to overcome technology and deployment barriers.
The areas of professional development a participant may engage in include:
• Learning to work in a dynamic team setting to understand key technological, ecological, regulatory and socio-economic issues and best practices for environmentally sustainable Marine Energy development;
• Researching and providing analysis of policies that support DOE’s work under Executive Order 13840 on Ocean Policy to Advance the Economic, Security, and Environmental Interests of the United States;
• Participating in the development of recommendations for addressing barriers to testing and deployment of MHK devices and learning how to work with regulatory agencies to help address data needs and perceptions of risk that lead to permitting challenges for new technologies;
• Learning how to assess proposed legislation for relevance to marine renewable energy development;
• Interacting with industry and environmental groups to understand how these groups determine their highest priorities for future research; and
• Observing, interacting with, and analyzing activities of the DOE-led Federal Offshore Renewable Energy Working Group.
