Basic research for fundamental new understanding on materials or systems that may revolutionize or transform today’s energy technologies
Development of new tools, techniques, and facilities, including those for advanced modeling and computation
Basic research for fundamental new understanding, usually with the goal of addressing showstoppers on real-world applications in the energy technologies
Research with the goal of meeting technical milestones, with emphasis on the development, performance, cost reduction, and durability of materials and components or on efficient processes

Basic research to address fundamental limitations of current theories and descriptions of matter in the energy range important to everyday life – typically energies up to those required to break chemical bonds.
Particularly challenging are the failures to understand and to contol systems that are ultrasmall or isolated, or are far from equilibrium, or display emergent phenomena of many kinds.
