The '''Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM)''', part of the [[Department of Energy|U.S. Department of Energy]], focuses on research, development, and deployment of technologies to reduce carbon emissions from fossil fuel use and industrial processes. It aims to enhance environmental stewardship while ensuring energy security and supporting a transition to a net-zero carbon economy. {{Official URL (simple)|url=https://www.energy.gov/fecm/office-fossil-energy-and-carbon-management}} ==Mission== FECM's mission involves investing in innovative technologies to minimize the environmental impact of fossil fuels. This includes research into carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS), methane emissions reduction, and securing critical minerals, all while supporting good-paying jobs and community development. ==Parent organization== FECM is under the [[wikipedia:United States Department of Energy|United States Department of Energy]]. It collaborates with the [[wikipedia:National Energy Technology Laboratory|National Energy Technology Laboratory]] (NETL) for much of its R&D work. ==Legislation== FECM evolved from the Office of Fossil Energy, with its current focus and name formalized by administrative action rather than specific legislation. ==Partners== While FECM does not list specific partners, it works with industry, academia, and international entities on energy research and development initiatives. ==Number of employees== FECM has approximately 750 employees. ==Organization structure== * Assistant Secretary leads the office. * [[Office of Carbon Management]] focuses on carbon technologies. * [[Office of Resource Sustainability]] addresses methane emissions and minerals. * [[National Energy Technology Laboratory]] conducts R&D under FECM's direction. ==List of programs== * Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) * Methane Emissions Reduction * Critical Minerals Production * Hydrogen with Carbon Management ==Last total enacted budget== FECM's budget specifics are not detailed publicly; however, it receives funding through the Department of Energy's annual appropriations. ==Leader== The leader is the **Assistant Secretary for Fossil Energy and Carbon Management**. ==Services provided== FECM provides services like funding research projects, developing policy and standards for carbon management, engaging with communities impacted by energy transitions, and supporting the development of technologies for cleaner fossil fuel use and industrial processes. ==Regulations overseen== FECM does not directly oversee regulations but influences policy and standards related to carbon management and energy production. ==Headquarters address== 1000 Independence Ave SW, Washington, DC 20585 ==External links== * https://www.energy.gov/fecm/office-fossil-energy-and-carbon-management * https://www.netl.doe.gov/ [[Category:United States Department of Energy]]
