Abstract

This paper describes the objectives, strategies, and mechanisms used by the US Department of Energy (DOE), its laboratories, other government and private technology development organizations in their technology transfer programs. Its scope is limited to listing the technology transfer mechanisms and defining the situations when these particular mechanisms are most effective. In this paper, the specific mechanisms for transferring technology, ant the advantages and disadvantages of each are listed based on federal laboratories' and industry's experiences in using these mechanisms. In addition, several case studies illustrating how technology transfer strategies using multiple mechanisms have been executed successfully. The conclusions of this paper support those reported by the Energy Research Advisory Board (ERAB) in 1988. 8 refs., 2 figs., 1 tab.
