Global Climate and Energy Project awards nearly $2 million to study carbon sequestration in China
Stanford, California—August 25, 2009—Stanford University's Global Climate and Energy Project has initiated an international collaboration with the University of Southern California (USC), Peking University (PKU) and China University of Geosciences at Wuhan (CUG) to address fundamental issues associated with large-scale sequestration of carbon dioxide in saline aquifers in China. > More Global Climate and Energy Project broadens access to its technology; new director announces $5.6 million in research awards Stanford, California—February 4, 2009—Sally Benson announced $5.6 million in new GCEP awards for five full-term research programs and six exploratory research efforts being conducted at Stanford and other institutions around the world in the areas of solar energy, carbon capture and storage, and biomass energy. > More Stanford launches $100 million initiative to tackle energy issues Stanford, California—January 12, 2009—Recognizing that energy is at the heart of many of the world's tribulations—economic, environmental and political—Stanford is establishing a $100 million research institute to focus intently on energy issues, President John Hennessy told a capacity crowd Monday afternoon in Memorial Auditorium. > More GCEP symposium considers 'Energy Research-Five Years and Beyond' Stanford, California—September 12, 2008—As GCEP marks its fifth anniversary this year, the theme of the conference will be "Energy Research-Five Years and Beyond." Researchers from Stanford and around the world will discuss the project's progress and the opportunities that could lead to energy technologies with significantly reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. > More Global Climate and Energy Project celebrates five years of research toward energy solutionsStanford, California—February 25, 2008—At a special five-year anniversary event, GCEP Director Franklin M. Orr Jr. will present highlights from the project in a lecture titled "GCEP—Research to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions." The talk will be followed by a discussion, led by a panel of distinguished experts in the area of energy research, on the future directions of GCEP. > More Stanford, California—September 11, 2007—The Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP) will hold its third annual energy research symposium Oct. 1-3 at Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center. Researchers from Stanford and around the world will discuss scientific results and developments that may lead to energy technologies with significantly reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. > More Stanford, California—March 23, 2007—Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP) Director Franklin M. Orr Jr. has announced a record $15 million in awards for eight research programs and five one-year exploratory research efforts to be conducted at Stanford and a number of other institutions. > More Stanford, California—February 28, 2007—Sally Benson, a staff scientist and former deputy director for operations at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, has been named to the newly created position of executive director of the Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP). The project aims to foster the development of global energy solutions that significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Global Climate and Energy Project announces more than $1 million in research awards Stanford, California—October 23, 2006—Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP) Director Franklin Orr Jr. announced awards totaling $1.15 million for two novel research programs and two exploratory research efforts that have been initiated at Stanford and outside the university. The new research activities are in the areas of biomass, advanced coal utilization and integrated assessment of biofuels. The investigators are using the funds to conduct fundamental research in energy technologies aimed at greatly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Stanford, California—August 18, 2006—The Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP)
will hold an energy research symposium Sept. 18-20 at the Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni
Center. Researchers from
Stanford and around the world will discuss developments that may spur energy
technologies with significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Stanford, California—March 7, 2006—Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP) Director Franklin M. Orr Jr. announced several new research programs and two one-year exploratory research efforts totaling close to $8 million at Stanford and outside the university. The new research activities will focus on solar energy, biohydrogen generation, advanced combustion, and geologic storage of carbon dioxide. Stanford, California—August 11, 2005—Franklin M. Orr Jr., director
of the Stanford University Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP),
announced that five new research grants totaling more than $11 million
have been awarded to Stanford faculty and collaborating researchers at
other institutions in the United States and overseas. Stanford, California—May 25, 2005—The Global Climate and Energy
Project (GCEP) will hold its first energy research symposium June 13-16
at the Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center. Stanford, California—Feb. 10, 2005—Franklin M. Orr, Jr., director of
the Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP), today announced seven new

institutions. Hydrogen Research Earns $5.1 Million in Global Climate and Energy Project Grants Stanford, California—Nov. 18, 2003—GCEP has awarded four projects a
total of $5.1 million to research the use of hydrogen as an energy
carrier. Stanford faculty from a range of disciplines will lead the
individual research efforts, and the projects will be funded over a
three-year period beginning January 2004. Stanford University to Lead Search for Solutions to Global Climate and Energy Needs ExxonMobil, GE, Schlumberger, other private industry leaders to fund university's Global Climate and Energy Project Stanford, California—Nov. 20, 2002—Stanford University today
