Abstract
The Solar Energy Research Institute (SERI) is a new national laboratory, mandated by Congress in the Solar Energy Research, Development and Demonstration Act of 1974. The program of the Biological and Chemical Conversion Branch falls within SERI's mission to perform research directed toward the timely development of solar energy technologies which have both near- and long-term promise. Three major thrusts of this continually expanding program are discussed: biomass conversion to fuels; photoconversion, with emphasis on both photobiological and photochemical approaches; and thermochemical conversion schemes.
