State Energy Research Projects Seek Stimulus Funds
By Matt Joyce, AP
Wyoming scientists and other groups have drawn up a range of
proposals for stimulus-funded research projects to help the
state’s energy industry, largely by studying how to deal with
carbon dioxide emissions.
Three groups planned to submit applications by the Tuesday
deadline for stimulus funding administered by the Department of
Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency. It’s one of the
first opportunities for researchers to apply for competitive
grants funded by the federal stimulus bill.
“That is a bucket of money that is intended for high-risk,
high-return kinds of projects, or breakthrough kinds of
projects,” said Rob Hurless, energy adviser to Gov. Dave
Freudenthal. “The areas we’re looking at all in one way or
another revolve around CO2 at this point.”
Wyoming has identified billions of dollars in potential energy-related stimulus grants, including for energy infrastructure, renewable energy, coal conversion, and carbon capture and storage. Hurless said Wyoming groups will continue applying for stimulus funds as more funding become available.
