DOE’s technology transfer and related technology partnering activities are directed towards facilitating the efficient and expeditious development, transfer, and exploitation of federally developed technology for the public benefit and to enhance the accomplishment of DOE missions. Accomplishing the transfer of technologies and capabilities to non-Federal partners, including private firms, has been an aim of the government policy since the passage of Bayh-Dole and Stevenson-Wydler technology transfer legislation in 1980. In 1989, the National Competitiveness Technology Transfer Act strengthened this aim at the Department of Energy by establishing technology transfer as a mission of DOE National Laboratories and Facilities.
