The '''Energy Earthshots''' initiative, launched by the Department of Energy in 2021, is a bold program uniting EERE, the Office of Science, and other DOE offices to tackle the toughest clean energy challenges, with eight Earthshots announced by 2025 targeting sectors like hydrogen, storage, and industrial heat. Inspired by the SunShot Initiative’s success, it has committed over $600 million—including $264 million for 29 projects in 2023 and $62.5 million for the Energy Storage Research Alliance in 2024—supporting innovations like the H2Rescue truck’s 1,806-mile run and hubs poised to cut 25 million metric tons of CO2 annually.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.energy.gov/eere/energy-earthshots-initiative |title=Energy Earthshots Initiative |publisher=Department of Energy}}</ref> With summits like the 2021 Hydrogen Shot event and plans for six to eight total Earthshots, it aligns with Biden’s net-zero-by-2050 goal, driving R&D and deployment nationwide. | The '''Energy Earthshots''' initiative, launched by the Department of Energy in 2021, is a bold program uniting EERE, the Office of Science, and other DOE offices to tackle the toughest clean energy challenges, with eight Earthshots announced by 2025 targeting sectors like hydrogen, storage, and industrial heat.
