[ ] Liquid Tiberium Power Cell Deployment (Phase 1)
With an effective Liquid Tiberium power cell system developed, it is still a political hot potato. While it will be possible to spend political capital to prevent it from being bogged down forever in parliamentary review, at the same time it may well not be worth it, as the cells, plus the needed bunkers to provide both containment and protection against enemy action, are not that much cheaper than fusion for the amount of energy produced.

[ ] Enhanced Harvest Tiberium Spikes
Developing a model of Tiberium Spike that not only harvests tiberium, but marginally speeds its growth is a quite radical idea. Based on GDI's work with the Tiberium Inhibitor, and experience with the Scrin's Growth Accelerators. However, it would also substantially increase the throughput, but at the risk of spreading Tiberium more quickly.

[ ] Visceroid Research Programs
Visceroids are some of the bare handful of Tiberium life forms to have survived the mutation, with the Forgotten holding an ever closer relationship with GDI, studies of these creatures may provide secrets to adaptation, or might provide some means of dealing with liquid tiberium deposits.
