Loan Guarantees for Projects That Employ Innovative Technologies (US Department of Energy Regulation) (DOE) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Loan Guarantees for Projects That Employ Innovative Technologies (US Department of Energy Regulation) (DOE) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 On May 16, 2007, the Department of Energy (DOE or the Department) published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and opportunity for comment (NOPR) to establish regulations for the loan guarantee program authorized by Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (Title XVII or the Act). Title XVII authorizes the Secretary of Energy (Secretary) to make loan guarantees for projects that "avoid, reduce, or sequester air pollutants or anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases; and employ new or significantly improved technologies as compared to commercial technologies in service in the United States at the time the guarantee is issued." Title XVII also identifies ten categories of technologies and projects that are potentially eligible for loan guarantees. The two principal goals of Title XVII are to encourage commercial use in the United States of new or significantly improved energy-related technologies and to achieve substantial environmental benefits. DOE believes that commercial use of these technologies will help sustain and promote economic growth, produce a more stable and secure energy supply and economy for the United States, and improve the environment. Having considered all of the comments submitted to DOE in response to the NOPR, the Department today is issuing this final rule.
