Vision and Framework for Strategy and Planning Published August 2005
Table B-1: Categorization of R&D Funding To Climate Change Technology Program (Funding, $ Millions)
Notes:
For EPA, FY 2005 Enacted numbers are for those of the President's FY05 request, not enacted, and that once EPA operating plans are complete, the FY05 numbers will change.
For FY 2006, NASA went through a realignment within its Aeronautics Research. NASA no longer plans to pursue previously reported activities in certain vehicle systems areas.
Totals may not add due to rounding. All agency data are as of March 2005.
USAID activities are not included in the totals for CCTP, but are shown here for completeness, to the extent that such activities are consistent with the criteria for inclusion in CCTP, as shown below.
Criteria for Including Activities Related to the U.S. Climate Change Technology Program
Research, development, demonstration, and deployment activities37 classified as being climate change work or associated with the goals and objectives of the Climate Change Technology Program (CCTP) must be activities that are relevant to providing opportunities for:
Current and future reductions in or avoidances of emissions of GHGs
GHG capture and/or long-term storage, including biological uptake and storage
Conversion of GHGs to beneficial use in ways that avoid emissions to the atmosphere
Monitoring and/or measurement of GHG emissions, inventories, and fluxes in a variety of settings
Technologies that improve or displace other GHG emitting technologies, such that the result would be reduced GHG emissions compared to technologies they displace
Technologies that could enable or facilitate the development, deployment, and use of other GHG-emissions reduction technologies
Technologies that alter, substitute for, or otherwise replace processes, materials, and/or feedstocks, resulting in lower net emission of GHGs
Technologies that mitigate the effects of climate change, enhance adaptation or resilience to climate change impacts, or potentially counterbalance the likelihood of human-induced climate change
Basic research activities undertaken explicitly to address a technical barrier to progress of one of the above climate change technologies
GHG emission reductions resulting from clear improvements in management practices or purchasing decisions
Specific examples of climate change technology activities include, but are not limited to
Electricity production technologies and associated fuel cycles with significantly reduced, little, or no net GHG emissions
High-quality fuels or other high-energy density and transportable carriers of energy with significantly reduced, little, or no net GHG emissions
Feedstocks, resources or material inputs to economic activities, which may be produced through processes or complete resource cycles with significantly reduced, little or no net GHG emissions
Improved processes and infrastructure for using GHG-free fuels, power, materials, and feedstocks
CO2 capture, permanent storage (sometimes referred to as sequestration), and biological uptake
Technologies that reduce, control or eliminate emissions of non-CO2 GHGs
u Advances in sciences of remote sensing and other monitoring, measurement and verification technologies, including data systems and inference methods
Technologies that substantially reduce GHG-intensity
Voluntary government/industry programs designed to directly reduce GHG emissions
Programs that result in energy efficiency improvements through grants or direct technical assistance.
