Summary

The Board — the Foundation’s Board of Directors. Department — the Department of Energy. Executive Director — the person who runs the Foundation day-to-day. Foundation — the nonprofit called the Foundation for Energy Security and Innovation. Historically Black college or university — as defined in Title 20. Individual Laboratory-Associated Foundation — a nonprofit set up by a National Laboratory contractor. Minority serving institution — includes Hispanic-serving, Alaska Native- or Native Hawaiian-serving, Predominantly Black, Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-serving, and Native American-serving nontribal schools. National Laboratory — as defined in the law. Secretary — the Secretary of Energy. Tribal College or University — as defined in Title 20. The Secretary must set up the nonprofit Foundation within 180 days after August 9, 2022. The Foundation must help the Department of Energy and speed up turning energy research into real products by working with universities, National Laboratories, industry, nonprofits, and funders. It must be a tax-exempt private nonprofit, not a federal agency. A Board will run it. The Board will include four nonvoting ex officio members from DOE and appointed voting members from academia, labs, industry, philanthropy, and government. The Board hires an Executive Director, makes bylaws and rules, raises and accepts money, gives grants and fellowships, runs prize competitions, supports training and technology maturation, and helps labs commercialize inventions. The Board must set conflict-of-interest rules, require audits, keep records available to the Secretary and the Comptroller General, and make sure the United States is not legally liable for the Foundation’s debts. The Foundation must send a strategic plan within 1 year after August 9, 2022 that includes a plan to be financially self-sustaining in fiscal year 2023 (except for certain small annual amounts), and must report yearly on activities, funding, and evaluations. The Comptroller General must do an evaluation within 5 years. The law authorizes at least $1,500,000 for the Secretary for fiscal year 2023 to set up the Foundation; at least $30,000,000 for the Foundation for fiscal year 2024 (which must be cost-shared by a partner other than DOE or a National Laboratory); and at least $3,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2025 through 2027 for operations. The National Energy Technology Laboratory may also create a separate Laboratory Foundation with similar powers and independent governance.
