Technical and Strategic Support

Lindahl Reed leads a team of scientists, engineers, and technical specialists to support AMMTO’s mission to drive and inspire innovation that transforms materials, manufacturing, and workforce and advances America’s energy economy. We deliver expert services across three pillars—Next-Generation Materials and Processes (NGMP), Secure and Sustainable Materials (S&SM), and Energy Technology Manufacturing and Workforce (ETMW)—while integrating technical assistance with strategic planning, communications, and program oversight. Key contributions include:

• Strategic Program Planning: Author materials and frameworks to support AMMTO’s annual operating plan, R&D investment strategies, and alignment with DOE energy goals. Support the development of the Efficient Energy Scaling for Two Decades (EES2) roadmap, which will guide DOE and government-wide efforts to improve the energy efficiency of microelectronics over the coming decades.
• Project Management: Manage over 140 financial assistance opportunities across the lifecycle, from concept to awarded projects. Oversee cost, scope, and schedule performance, compliance, and invoice processing and closeout, ensuring project performance, recipient accountability, and delivery of high-value research results.
• Technical Analysis and Validation: Review and assess RD&D project data, performance metrics, and lab-developed innovations to guide AMMTO investment decisions. Provide subject matter expertise in areas such as critical materials, smart manufacturing, battery scale-up, and workforce education.
• Market Analysis: Identify regional market barriers and policy levers for scaling geothermal direct-use applications, including district heating and agricultural integration. Facilitate peer reviews, lab calls, and technology assessments for Power Electronics, Harsh Environment Materials, and more.
• Technology Commercialization: Support the expansion of the Lab-Embedded Entrepreneurship Program (LEEP), which recruits early-stage energy startups and/or emerging technologies entrepreneurs. Develop a strategic plan and expanding the LEEP multi-office advisory committee to encompass all of EERE and the Office of Science, accelerating the transition of energy innovations into the market.
