IRA funding is enabling America to tackle the climate crisis, advance environmental justice and secure its position as a world leader in domestic clean energy manufacturing. The investment puts the United States on a clear pathway to achieving the Biden Administration\u2019s climate goals, including a net-zero economy by 2050. As part of the historic IRA investment, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is providing $1.5 billion to advance the mission of DOE\u2019s national laboratories.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Argonne.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-144665\" src=\"https:\/\/peymantaeidi.net\/stem-cell\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Argonne-300x118-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"98\" \/><\/a>\u201cAmerica\u2019s commitment to science and ingenuity shaped us into the world leaders we are today, and the continued success of our national laboratories will ensure we\u2019re at the global forefront of innovation for generations to come,\u201d said U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm. \u200b\u201cThanks to President Biden\u2019s Inflation Reduction Act, these world-class institutions will receive $1.5 billion \u2014 one of the largest ever investments in national laboratory infrastructure\u2026 to develop advanced energy and manufacturing technologies we need to advance the frontiers of science and tackle tomorrow\u2019s challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DOE\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anl.gov\/\">Argonne National Laboratory<\/a> will receive funding to accelerate science for U.S. prosperity and security in three key areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>$54M of IRA funding is helping create the Aurora exascale computer. This next-generation supercomputer slated to go online next year will be one of the fastest computers in the world, providing unprecedented capability to leverage artificial intelligence and simulation for transformative scientific discoveries. Housed in the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility, a DOE Office of Science user facility, Aurora will help scientists solve pressing problems such as efficient clean energy, new medicines, faster and more Earth-friendly electronics, and national security.<\/li>\n<li>$4M in IRA funds will help Argonne build a waste heat recovery system to make the Lab\u2019s Lemont, Illinois campus more energy efficient. By reusing waste heat from Argonne\u2019s facilities, the Lab will reduce the natural gas burned on its campus, saving 1,400 metric tons of carbon from going into the atmosphere each year.<\/li>\n<li>Argonne\u2019s Center for Nanoscale Materials (CNM), also a DOE Office of Science user facility, will benefit from $20M in IRA funding providing new tools across five DOE research centers. CNM makes more than 100 tools and capabilities for nanoscience and nanotechnology research available to scientists from across the country, powering the discovery of new materials for energy, information science and the environment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cWith these increased resources, we will be better equipped to fulfill our mission for the nation. We will further accelerate the science and technology that drive U.S. prosperity and security,\u201d said Argonne Director Paul K. Kearns. \u200b\u201cAll of this is possible due to the exceptional support of the White House, the U.S. Departament of Energy and the Office of Science.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Argonne<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.anl.gov\/\">Argonne National Laboratory<\/a>&nbsp;seeks solutions to pressing national problems in science and technology.
