By cycling carbon through energy generation systems as biomass, it offers a means to address climate change. While solar and wind provide carbon-free electricity or H 2 through water splitting, they lack the ability to directly produce carbon-based fuels and chemicals without additional carbon sources.

When Franklin Lombardo arrived at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the summer of 2010 as a newly-minted PhD in wind engineering, he expected to spend his time there developing wind maps of the US. The maps need to be refreshed regularly as science, technology, and the climate change.

“Public policy implementation is hard even if everyone supports a policy,” says University of Michigan professor emeritus John Leslie King , who has studied policy management and administration for decades. Permitting issues also bedevil wind power projects. For example, Iowa is one of the best states for wind power farms.
