The Agile BioFoundry (ABF) is a US National Lab-led consortium that aims to advance biomanufacturing funded by the Department of Energy. The consortium partners are: Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, Argonne National Lab, Los Alamos National Lab, the National Renewable Energy Lab, Oak Ridge National Lab, Pacific Northwest National Lab, and Sandia National Labs. Their goal is to build a platform for biological approaches to produce advanced biofuels, renewable chemicals, and materials that represent low greenhouse gas alternatives to everything we currently derive from Bioenergy and bio-product feedstocks petroleum.
