DOE schedules 2027 peer review for alternative fuels office
DOE set its 2027 peer review for the week of April 19 in Arlington, a biennial check on AFFO's active R&D portfolio. The 2023 review covered 11 technology areas.
The U.S. Department of Energy will hold the Alternative Fuels and Feedstocks Office’s 2027 Peer Review Meeting the week of April 19 in Arlington, Virginia. The meeting will evaluate office-funded projects against agency goals and give National Lab experts, industry stakeholders and DOE staff a forum to exchange ideas on cutting-edge technologies.
DOE describes the peer review as a rigorous, systematic review of active projects in AFFO’s research, development and demonstration portfolio. Technical experts from industry, academia, DOE National Laboratories and other federal agencies will conduct the review under DOE’s biennial peer review process. The office calls it a formal, documented evaluation using objective criteria.
AFFO is the office formerly known as the Bioenergy Technologies Office. It sits within the Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation and works to accelerate technology commercialization for the production, storage, delivery and use of alternative fuels, fertilizers, chemicals and feedstocks.
BETO hosted its 2023 Project Peer Review in April 2023 in Denver, Colorado, where new research and development projects from 11 technology areas were presented to external subject-matter experts. DOE released a 2023 Project Peer Review Report that summarized stakeholder and expert feedback. BETO also scheduled its 2025 Project Peer Review for April 22-25, 2025, in Arlington, Virginia, before the office was renamed AFFO.
DOE will post additional details and registration information for the 2027 meeting later.
