The Algae Testbed Public Private Partnership -ATP3 (Final Closeout Report)
The Algae Testbed Public Private Partnership (ATP3) was proposed in response to the ADVANCEMENTS IN SUSTAINABLE ALGAL PRODUCTION (ASAP) FUNDING OPPORTUNITY NUMBER: DE-FOA-0000615 TOPIC AREA 2-DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONAL ALGAL FEEDSTOCK TESTBED (RAFT) PARTNERSHIPS in 2012. For six years, from 2013 through 2019, ATP3 was operated as a multi-institutional effort funded by the Department of Energy to establish a network of operating testbeds that brought together world-class scientists, engineers and business executives whose goal it was to increase stakeholder access to high quality facilities by making available an unparalleled array of outdoor cultivation, downstream equipment, and laboratory facilities to the algal R&D community. ATP3 utilized the same powerful combination of facilities and technical expertise to support TEA, LCA and resource modeling and analysis activities, helping to close critical knowledge gaps and inform robust analyses of the state of technology for algal based biofuels and bioproducts. ATP3 included testbed facilities at Arizona State University’s (ASU) Arizona Center for Algae Technology and Innovation (AzCATI), and augmented by university and commercial facilities in Hawaii (Cellana), California (Cal Poly San Luis Obispo), Georgia (Georgia Institute of Technology), and Florida (Florida Algae), in addition to partners at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories, Valicor Renewables (Michigan), University of Texas at Austin (Texas), Commercial Algae Management (Georgia), Harmon Consulting (Hawaii), Evodos (Netherlands), and Litree (China).
