Congress finds the following: 
(1) In order to achieve domestic and inter-
national net-zero greenhouse gas emissions targets, 
a rapid and substantial investment in clean energy 
innovation is needed. 
(2) Clean energy technologies face unique ob-
stacles to successful commercial application, includ-
ing high up-front capital costs, long development 
times, and the need to displace incumbent tech-
nologies in highly regulated markets.

(3) Multiple technology development and fi-
nancing gaps exist in the clean energy innovation 
and commercial application landscape that are not 
currently met by private sector investment alone. 
(4) Federal investments in technology transfer 
and demonstration programs help fill existing gaps 
in the innovation cycle and improve the likelihood of 
successful and timely commercial application of 
clean energy technologies. 
(5) To maximize clean energy innovation’s posi-
tive impact on United States economic competitive-
ness and reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, 
the Department of Energy must show significant 
leadership in enabling the transfer of new tech-
nologies to the private sector, particularly through 
the Office of Technology Transitions.
