Action Plan for U.S. Leadership in Next-Generation Energy

The Next-Generation Energy Action Plan – the fourth in the series of National Action Plans to ensure U.S. leadership in key technology areas – addresses the next generation of clean energy technologies that will shape individual lives and great geopolitical tensions.

Energy is the foundation of the modern world. Everywhere you look, some form of energy is being used to make our lives better. As we enter the Age of AI with an increasingly digitized and connected world, energy technologies will only grow in importance. The national security imperative that the United States and its allies and partners lead the world in energy cannot be overstated.
