Malden Mills, the industry pictured, replaced its power plant in 1999 with the help of DOE after it had been destroyed by fire in 1995. DOE provided financial and technical support to develop a cogeneration plant that has one of the lowest emissions of any industrialized heat and electric combined facility in the United States.

Four Times Square–a 48-story skyscraper–is one of the most environmentally and technologically advanced buildings in the nation. Assistance with these advanced technologies was provided by New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and DOE’s State Energy Program.

The car depicted represents the work of DOE’s Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles program. With the assistance of DOE, the Big Three automotive manufacturers in the U.S. (DaimlerChrysler, Ford, and General Motors) have each developed their own new concept vehicle designed to utilize hybrid electric propulsion to enable them to achieve fuel efficiency of up to 80 miles per gallon.

The wind turbine technology represented on the cover is located at Buffalo Ridge, MN. Its development was supported by the DOE Wind Power program implemented through NREL’s National Wind Technology Center.
