Julio Friedmann
Chief Scientist and Chief Carbon Wrangler
Carbon Direct
Dr. Julio Friedmann is Chief Scientist and Chief Carbon Wrangler at Carbon Direct.
He recently served as Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Office of Fossil
Energy at the Department of Energy where he was responsible for DOE’s R&D
program in advanced fossil energy systems, carbon capture, and storage (CCS), CO2
utilization, and clean energy deployment. More recently, he was a Senior Research
Scholar at the Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University SIPA, where he
led the Carbon Management Research Initiative. He has held positions at Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory, including Chief Energy Technologist, where he
worked for 15 years.
Dr. Friedmann is one of the most widely known and authoritative experts in the U.S.
on carbon removal (CO2 drawdown from the air and oceans), CO2 conversion and
use (carbon-to-value), hydrogen, industrial decarbonization, and carbon capture and
sequestration. In addition to close partnerships with many private companies, NGOs,
Julio has worked with the U.S. State Department, the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, and government agencies foreign and domestic. His expertise also includes
oil and gas production, international clean energy engagements, and earth science.
Dr. Friedmann received his Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees from
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), followed by a Ph.D. in Geology at
the University of Southern California. He worked for five years as a senior research
scientist at ExxonMobil, then as a research scientist at the University of Maryland.
