The U.S. Departmentof Energy (DOE) today built on its Grid Modernization Initiative an ongoing effortthat reflects the Obama Administrations commitment to improving the resiliency,reliability, and security of the nations electricity delivery system. During his visit to autility control center in Miami, FL today, Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz announcedthe release of DOEs comprehensive new Grid Modernization Multi-Year ProgramPlan, a blueprint for modernizing the grid. The Secretary also announced theaward of up to $220 million over three years, subject to congressionalappropriations, to DOEs National Labs and partners to support critical researchand development in advanced storage systems, clean energy integration,standards and test procedures, and a number of other key grid modernizationareas. Additional programs, initiatives, and funding opportunity announcementsrelated to the Grid Modernization Initiative will be announced in the coming days.

    Solar investment tops US$160 billion in 2015 despite oil price plunge. Globalinvestment in solar energy in 2015 reached a record US$161.5 billion off the backof 57GW of PV installations, ac cording to the latest data from Bloomberg NewEnergy Finance (BNEF). Total renewable investment for the year hit US$329 billion,up US$13 billion on the previous year. The US and China combined to provide

    more than half of that overall figure. More startling than the growth figures is thatthis commitment to renewables has continued to ratchet up while fossil fuel priceshave plummeted. Oil prices have more than halved in two year. (PV Tec h 14Janua ry 2016)

    RENEWABLE HYDROGEN FROM TRI-GENERATION FUEL CELLS INCLUDED UNDER CALIFORNIA LOW C ARBON FUELSTANDARD (LCFS)http://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2016/01/14/802008/0/en/Renewable-Hydrogen-From-Tri-Generation-Fuel-Cells-Included-Under-California-Low-Carbon-Fuel-Standard-LCFS.html

    FuelCell Energy, Inc. has received contingent certification for a prospective pathway for its renewablehydrogen generation solution using fuel cells at wastewater treatment facilities under the Low Carbon FuelStandard (LCFS), administered by the California Air Resources Board (C ARB). Under the LCFS, certified pathwaysdefine the carbon intensity of various types of alternative fuels. The new tri-generation pathway has aremarkable negative c arbon intensity, meaning that a vehicle using hydrogen fuel from tri-generation is notonly carbon free, but in fact is offsetting carbon emissions compared to alternatives. Production of renewablehydrogen from megawatt-class FuelCell Energy power plants provides a transportation fuel for fuel cell electricvehicles (FCEV) that is generated in a carbon-neutral and non-polluting proc ess. The inclusion of tri-generationFuelCell Energy power plants in the LCFS Credit Market means that each kilogram of renewable hydrogensupplied for vehicle fueling is eligible for an LCFS credit that can be sold or traded to offset carbon-intensivepetroleum fuel usage. Final certification is expected following a specified period of operation and review ofperformance data of a megawatt-class tri-generation system utilizing renewable biogas as the fuel source.

    NORWEGIAN RADIATION PROTECTION AUTHORITY G RANTS REGULATORY APPROVAL FOR PLANNED IRRADIATIONOF LIGHTBRIDGE METALLIC FUEL AT THE HALDEN RESEARCH REAC TORhttp:// ir.ltbridge.com/ releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=949913Lightbridge Corporation announced that the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE), which operates the HaldenResearch Reactor in Norway, had received formal regulatory approval from the Norwegian RadiationProtection Authority (NRPA) for all planned irradiation of Lightbridge metallic fuel at the Halden ResearchReactor in Norway, which is expected to begin in 2017. This regulatory approval follows a safety reportpreviously submitted by IFE to the NRPA relating to irradiation testing of Lightbridge-designed metallic fuelsamples, as well as the recently announced export license approval by the Norwegian Ministry of ForeignAffairs. The NRPA noted the safety advantages of Lightbridge metallic fuel, including much better thermalconductivity than oxide fuel, which contributes to significantly lower centerline temperatures in the fuel ascompared to oxide fuel, and reduced likelihood for a release of fission products should a cladding breachoccur.

    LIGHTBRIDGE ENTERS INTO INITIAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BWXThttp://finance.yahoo.com/news/lightbridge-enters-initial-services-agreement-134500397.htmlLightbridge Corporation has entered into an Initial Services Agreement with BWXT Nuclear Energy, Inc., a whollyowned subsidiary of BWX Technologies, Inc. to evaluate the ability to fabricate and to prepare a preliminaryplan for fabrication of Lightbridge-designed partial length nuclear fuel samples at BWXT facilities in the UnitedStates. This plan is expected to be completed by early Q2 2016 at which time the parties intend to exploreexpanding their collaboration to support: (1) development and demonstration of manufacturing processes forLightbridge-designed metallic fuel applicable to production of irradiation fuel samples, and (2) fabrication ofthe required fuel samples for irradiation testing in the Institute for Energy Technologys (IFE) Halden researchreactor in Norway. This irradiation testing is planned to begin in 2017.

    http://www.prnewswire.com/ news-releases/honeywell-uop-xceed-technology-to-help-hollyfrontier-meet-stricter-wastewater-regulations-300203279.htmlHoneywell announced that industrial wastewater technology from Honeywell UOP will help a Wyoming refineryremove c ontaminants from its wastewater to meet new environmental requirements. HollyFrontier CheyenneRefining LLC has selec ted Honeywell UOP's XCeed bioreactor technology to remove selenium fromwastewater at its 52,000 barrel-per-day refinery in Cheyenne, Wyo. The high-performance unit will processapproximately 1 million gallons per day of wastewater when it goes online this year. Honeywell UOP's XCeedbioreactor technology removes organic and inorganic contaminants to help industrial, manufacturing and

    groundwater remediation facilities meet contaminant removal specifications for wastewater discharge orreuse. This advanced biological technology is based on Honeywell UOP's expertise in reactor design, appliedmicrobiology and process control that enables long biomass retention time, resulting in efficient seleniumremoval with low sludge production, low energy consumption, low maintenance and minimal operatorattention. Other Honeywell UOP separations technologies have been commercially proven in many waterapplications, including the removal of radioactive contaminants from water at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclearplant in J apan.

    AMYRIS LAUNCHES PATHWAYS PROGRAM, PROVIDES PARTNERS WITH LOW-COST, LOW-RISK OPPORTUNITY TOAC CESS TRANSFORMATIONAL TECHNOLOGY PLATFORMhttp://globenewswire.com/ news-release/2016/01/15/802282/0/en/Amyris-Launches-Pathways-Program.html?f=22&fvtc=7Amyris, Inc. announced the availability of its Pathways Program, a program that provides partners a low-cost,

    low-risk opportunity to access Amyris's industry-leading synthetic biology technology. Through the PathwaysProgram, partners can, with a small initial investment, sponsor and sec ure a molecule they are interested inhaving Amyris produce using the next-generation tools and technologies being developed through thecompany's recently announced technology investment agreement with the Defense Advanced ResearchProjects Agency (DARPA). Amyris expects the powerful combination of its existing core technology andbioengineering advancements enabled by its project with DARPA will significantly reduce the time and cost ofbringing new molecules to market using industrial biotechnology. The Pathways Program allows partners toaccess these latest developments and explore bio-synthetic production opportunities with minimal risk andcommitment.
