DescriptionOn October 1,2008, the Alliance began management of the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory under Prime Contract No. DE-AC36-08-GO28308. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is the nation's primary laboratory for renewable energy and energy efficiency research and development (R&D). Alliance scientists and researchers supported critical objectives to accelerate research from scientific innovations to market-viable alternative energy solutions. The areas of research and technology development areas span from understanding renewable resources for energy, to the conversion of these resources to renewable electricity and fuels, and ultimately to the use of renewable electricity and fuels in homes, commercial buildings, and vehicles. The laboratory thereby directly contributes to our nation's goal for finding new renewable ways to power our homes, businesses, and cars. Commercialization and deployment efforts improved internal processes and policies to encourage an entrepreneurial environment for greater market impact, including a new DOE-funded Technology Portal. R&D capabilities are positioned to advance national energy goals by developing innovations to change the way homes and businesses are powered, and fuel our cars. R&D capabilities allow development and advancement of renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies more effectively through the full R&D life-cycle from basic scientific research through applied research and engineering to testing, scale-up, and demonstration. The R&D areas of expertise are: Renewable electricity Renewable fuels Integrated energy system engineering and testing Strategic energy analysis R&D staff and facilities support through collaborative research projects and licensed technologies with public and private partners. Innovative technologies have also been recognized with multiple R&D 100 awards which are considered the most prestigious technology innovation awards in the U.S. The engineering and science behind these technology transfer successes and awards demonstrates NREL's commitment to developing and applying innovative renewable energy solutions for the nation's secure and sustainable energy future. Alliance delivered on planned renewable energy and energy efficiency goals, and rapidly implemented of Recovery Act projects.Description

Form 990 Review ProcessPart VI, Section B, Line 11The Alliance Board of Directors have assigned to the Alliance Finance and Audit Committee, through the committee charter, the responsibility to review and approve the Form 990. The return is provided to the Board of Directors prior to filing.
Written Conflict of Interest PolicyPart VI, Section B, 12 CAll Alliance employees are required to attend annual ethics training which includes the process for identification and disclosure of conflicts of interest. Employees are required to file a written disclosure statement concerning outside services, and/or actual or potential conflicts of interest between the employee's work and personal, financial, or business interest. The Alliance Chief Operating Officer is responsible for the review and approval for employee requests for approval of outside consulting or employment. Employees whose regular responsibilities involve managing or executing license agreements for intellectual property or the preparation or execution of cooperative research and development agreements (CRADAs) or other technology transfer or technology partnership arrangements must annually or upon changes in relevant personal or family circumstances or the nature of work assigned, complete an Employee's Statement of Economic Interest. If an actual or potential conflict of interest exists, the employee consults with the general counsel or designee to identify and implement mitigation or avoidance actions, or recuses self if an appropriate mitigation or avoidance action cannot be identified. All Alliance officers and board of director members are required to submit a conflict of interest disclosure upon appointment, and an annual conflict of interest disclosure.

External third party resources are retained on a biennial basis to review all elements of executive remuneration (base salary, annual incentives, retirement benefits, health and welfare benefits and executive perquisites) to insure competitiveness of all the elements of cash compensation relative to the market for both base compensation and total compensation. There are no persons serving on the Compensation Committee with a conflict of interest with respect to the compensation arrangements. Contemporaneous documentation and records are retained.
