The Energy and Infrastructure Assurance program supports Sandia's core purpose of helping our nation secure a peaceful and free world through technology. Our goal is to enhance the surety (safety, security, and reliability) of energy and other critical infrastructures.
Strides are being made in the areas of energy research, earth sciences, transportation systems, risk management technologies, environmental stewardship, and nuclear waste management. Sandia is also actively working to improve the nation's critical infrastructure surety. We are focusing on infrastructure elements in the areas of transportation, electric power grid, oil and gas distribution, telecommunications, finance and banking, and vital human services.
