Accordingly, EDA has initiated
investigations to determine whether
increased imports into the United States

and administration of programs and
policies to expand the competitiveness
of U.S. exports of renewable energy and
energy efficiency goods and services.
The Committee’s work on renewable
energy will focus on technologies,
equipment, and services to generate
electricity, produce heat, and power
vehicles from renewable sources such as
solar, wind, biomass, hydropower,
geothermal, and hydrogen. The
Committee’s work on energy efficiency
will focus on technologies, services, and
platforms that provide system-level
energy efficiency to electricity
generation, transmission, and
distribution. These include smart grid
technologies and services, as well as
equipment and systems that increase the
resiliency of power infrastructure such
as energy storage. Climate solutions in
the energy sector, such as low-carbon
hydrogen production, clean energy
transportation, and virtual power plants
are also within the scope of the
Committee. For the purposes of this
Committee, covered goods and services
will not include vehicles, feedstock for
biofuels, or energy efficiency as it
relates to consumer goods or buildings.
Non-fossil fuels that reduce carbon
consumption (e.g., liquid biofuels and
pellets) are included.
DATES: All nominations for immediate
consideration for appointment must be
received by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight
Time (EDT) on August 25, 2022. After
that date, ITA may continue to accept

and in a manner that ensures that the
Committee is balanced in terms of
points of view, industry subsector,

consider the ethnic, racial, and gender
diversity and various abilities of the
United States population.
