Summary

Technology Transitions Act of 2019 This bill addresses technology programs within the Department of Energy (DOE). Specifically, the bill provides statutory authority for the creation of DOE's Office of Technology Transitions. The office aims to (1) expand the commercialization of DOE's research investments; and (2) focus on commercializing technologies that support DOE's missions, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the bill requires DOE to review all of its emission reduction research and development programs. Under the review, DOE must identify each program with a mission to develop technologies that reduce emissions, identify the technologies available to reduce emissions that are not covered by such programs, and recommend how overlapping programs may be combined or restructured to be more efficient.
