Initial estimates suggest that unconventional and secondary sources could provide significant amounts of the rare earth elements and other critical minerals and materials. For example\, wastes and byproducts from known fossil fuel reserves and other industries nation-wide currently contain more than 10 million tons of rare earth elements\, which is equivalent to more than a 300-year supply at the current rate of U.S. consumption. Energy and mining waste streams also need to be remediated\, so there is an opportunity to recover critical minerals during reclamation which puts the critical material recovery on a firm project timeline. \nJoin this session to: \n\nHear from project developers of unconventional and secondary sources of rare earth elements (REEs) and lithium (Li) in the U.S.\nDiscuss complementary DOE funding programs and EPA\, DEP remediation requirements\nHighlight opportunities for investors\, developers and other partners.\n\nDownload and View the Session/Presentation Deck\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nKwasi Ampofo\nHead of Metals and Mining\, BloombergNEF \n\n\n \nTodd Beers\nCOO\, Winner Water Services Inc. \n\n\n \nRemi Loiseau\nU.S. Lithium Manager\, ExxonMobil Low Carbon Solutions \n\n\n\n\n \nDr. Barbara Arnold\nChair and Professor of Practice in Mining Engineering\, Penn State \n\n\n \nRyan Peay\nDeputy Assistant Secretary for Resource Sustainability\, Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management\, U.S. Department of Energy URL:https://deploytogether.com/session/usa-sourced-critical-materials-from-byproducts-to-coproducts/ LOCATION:Room 202-B CATEGORIES:Circuits ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://deploytogether.com/wp-content/uploads/Circuits-D1T4-1-scaled.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20241204T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20241204T135000 DTSTAMP:20260424T211850 CREATED:20241017T020316Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241204T144813Z UID:10000021-1733317200-1733320200@deploytogether.com SUMMARY:Assessing America’s (New) Clean Energy Industrial Strategy DESCRIPTION:While the U.S. has been supporting research\, development\, and demonstration of clean energy technologies for decades\, BIL\, IRA\, and CHIPS were both historic investments in decarbonization and technology infrastructure\, and a return to/expansion of a federal role in catalyzing strategic industry/sectoral growth. America’s new industrial strategy activated and broadened the government’s conventional toolbelt to help workers\, businesses\, and investors expand – and diversify – the U.S. industrial landscape and economic base. This rich and robust debate will take a multifaceted look at the role of government and investment\, urban hubs to rural opportunities\, large investors to hyperlocal advocates in defining what comes next for America’s clean energy industrial strategy. \nJoin this session to explore: \n\nWhere has this industrial strategy renaissance borne and will bear fruits for the United States?\nWhat opportunities have surfaced for expansion and improvement in this industrial strategy?\nWhere do we risk falling into traps or generating unintended consequences?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nAlex Fitzsimmons\nHead of Government Affairs\, Sila Nanotechnologies \n\n\n \nAbigail Ball\nExecutive Director\, American Compass \n\n\n \nTodd Tucker\nDirector of Industrial Policy and Trade\, Roosevelt Institute \n\n\n\n\n \nDr. Tanya Das\nDirector\, Energy Program\, Bipartisan Policy Center URL:https://deploytogether.com/session/assessing-americas-new-clean-energy-industrial-strategy/ LOCATION:Room 201 CATEGORIES:Circuits ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://deploytogether.com/wp-content/uploads/Circuits-D1T3-1-scaled.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20241204T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20241204T135000 DTSTAMP:20260424T211850 CREATED:20241017T020228Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250102T162312Z UID:10000020-1733317200-1733320200@deploytogether.com SUMMARY:One Year of VPPs: How Puerto Rico Can Inform Resilience and Power Everywhere DESCRIPTION:Over the past year\, Puerto Rico has pioneered a virtual power plant (VPP) program and has seen immediate results through improved grid reliability and reduced brownouts. Through investments such as DOE’s $3 Billion partial loan guarantee for Project Hestia and the Grid Deployment Office’s $450 million to spread through funding opportunities for residential rooftop solar and battery storage installments\, the mechanisms for growth are in place. In this session\, we will hear lessons learned from those who made this possible: regulators\, utilities\, power aggregators\, and investors. We will explore how Puerto Rico’s experience can inform VPPs everywhere — community-driven solutions that build resilience and provide power to the people who need it most. \nJoin Puerto Rico\, DOE\, and industry leaders in this interactive session to explore: \n\nWhat are the program design\, growth\, sustainability and successes in Puerto Rico?\nWhat have we learned from these VPP deployments and what are the national implications?\nWhat does it look in practice to fund\, finance\, and invest in in Virtual Power Plants?\n\nDownload and View the Session/Presentation Deck\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nElizabeth Wolfe\nSenior Consultant\, Loan Programs Office\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nJeff Wahl\nVice President of Customer Programs\, LUMA Energy \n\n\n \nFausto Hernández\nSenior Manager\, Infrastructure Department\, Financial Oversight & Management Board for Puerto Rico \n\n\n\n\n \nMeghan Nutting\nExecutive VP of Government and Regulatory Affairs\, Sunnova Energy Corporation \n\n\n \nAllison Archambault\nPresident\, EarthSpark International URL:https://deploytogether.com/session/one-year-of-vpps-how-puerto-rico-can-inform-resilience-and-power-everywhere/ LOCATION:Room 207-A CATEGORIES:Circuits ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://deploytogether.com/wp-content/uploads/Circuits-D1T2-1-scaled.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20241204T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20241204T135000 DTSTAMP:20260424T211850 CREATED:20241017T015750Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241127T024205Z UID:10000015-1733317200-1733320200@deploytogether.com SUMMARY:DOE Debt to Catalyze Scale Up DESCRIPTION:As decarbonization projects transition from early-stage innovation to large-scale deployment\, access to capital is critical.
