West Virginia University ("WVU") is part of a three-university consortium awarded up to $26 million over the next two years to develop clean and efficient technologies for the use of fossil fuels. WVU, Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh will receive the funding through a subcontract with RDS Inc., an on-site contractor at the National Energy Technology Laboratory. The university partnership, called CWP Inc., will address key areas of fossil fuel research. The results of its work could help reduce regional and national dependence on foreign oil.
