In Miami, President Obama announced new programs that will provide $14 million for algal transportation fuel research, funding that has the potential to decrease our dependency on foreign oil and increase energy security.
His remarks followed a tour of the University’s Industrial Assessment Center (IAC), which trains students to become energy-efficiency experts who can identify areas to improve productivity, reduce waste, and save energy at small- and medium-sized manufacturers.
The IAC program was started by the DOE in 1976, and there are now 24 across the country.
