• Which energy policies are needed to accelerate an energy technology transition in the United States, when should they be implemented, and why are they needed? To explore these questions, a team consisting of 13 student researchers aided by two instructors was established. Over a period of eight months, the team attended guest lectures, performed extensive literature reviews, evaluated previous energy policies, examined two case studies, and surveyed technology and policy experts in the energy field. Guest Lectures Researchers attended lectures presented by both the project instructors and invited speakers from government, academia, and industry. These lectures had three main goals: to help the research team develop an understanding of the problems associated with a hydrocarbon-based energy economy, report on alternative technologies which could play a role in a more sustainable energy future, and discuss the policy mechanisms that have been used and are being proposed to establish a comprehensive national energy policy. Literature Review During the research process, the team conducted an extensive literature review with three primary areas of interest. The first was developing an understanding of energy technologies. Emphasis was placed on both currently available alternative energy technologies as well as those in the research and development stage that demonstrate significant future potential. This area included both energy production and demand reduction technologies. Second, the research team carefully conducted an analysis of past and current energy policy proposals, including those most recently announced by President Obama and his team. This analysis included the vital step of developing an understanding of the implications of these energy policies. Finally, two thorough case studies, exploring cold fusion and biofuels technology, were evaluated to extract general lessons that might inform future political decisions to fund or implement new alternative energy technologies. Original Survey of Experts The core of this report’s original work was gathered via interviews with technology and policy experts. Of 156 interview requests sent by the research team, 27 interviews were completed for a response rate of 17 percent. Each interviewee received a set of pre- determined questions targeted at answering the research questions and customized for each expert area: technology and policy. Responses gathered in this portion of the research process revealed key messages and lessons that helped to shape the policy recommendations. 2
