  • transmit, distribute, or store energy more efficiently;
  • enhance energy efficiency for buildings and industry;
  • enable the development of a Smart Grid (an evolving electric power network that utilizes new information technology systems, including those that enable customers to reduce or shift their power use during peak demand periods);
  • produce an advanced or sustainable material with energy or energy efficiency applications;
  • improve energy efficiency for transportation; or
  • enhance water security through improved water management, conservation, distribution, or end use applications.
