MISSION AREA STRATEGYSecure and Sustainable Energy Future (SSEF)
17
Mission Area Framework andSecure & Sustainable Energy Future (SSEF)
18
Current US Energy ObjectivesSecure and Resilient• Energy systems should be secure from and resilient to natural disruptions
as well as man-made attacks. Security must be addressed along the entire energy service value chain from supply (energy resources, materials, and technologies) to operations (distribution, storage, and end-use of fuels/electricity).
Source: QTR, page 19
Economically Competitive• Energy systems should provide energy services that
are abundant, sustainable, and affordable—taking into account the full market impacts and life-cycle costs of the energy-service value chain.
Environmentally Responsible• Clean energy systems should minimize air, water, and
land pollutant emissions; GHG emissions; biota impacts; and disruption of water and land resources.
19
SSEF V2.0 High Level ObjectiveSandia’s Secure & Sustainable Energy Future (SSEF) mission area will make major differentiating contributions to the nation’s energy security and resilience, economic viability, and environmental sustainability by:• Leveraging the full spectrum of Sandia’s distinguishing capabilities from
research to application, and• Partnering with industry, academia, and national laboratories as a principal
element of the DOE national laboratory system.

Co-evolution of Engines & Fuels Biomass Conversion to
Reduce GHG EmissionsAlternative Fuels:
Hydrogen and Natural GasSupport the development and deployment of new fuels and
engines to reduce GHG emissions Leverage SNL’s expertise to develop hydrogen-fuel
approaches and improve efficiency of natural gas engines
Improve the economics of biomass conversion to produce renewable biofuels and other
products to reduce GHG emissions
24
Energy ResearchBe the leaders that change the scientific community areas of core Sandia strengths
• Enable improved efficiency and co-evolved engine designs via predictive models for combustion
• Address the scientific questions underlying security and risk assessment for subterranean carbon storage
• Develop and apply new research capabilities to study energy transduction, conversion and storage in novel nanostructured materials
• Transformative materials discovery and understanding that inspires and underpins revolutions in energy systems
• Introduce Sandia differentiating technologies and capabilities to ARPA-e to enable future SSEF impact in Stationary Power, Transportation Energy and Climate and Earth Systems via technology transfer to industry
• Apply world-leading computational science and mathematics capabilities to energy challenges (e.g. modeling and simulation for combustion, discrete math and optimization for electric grid)
