description The form and application of the Lanczos potential for Bianchi spacetime are studied. The Lanczos potential is found in some specific cases, then the general case is studied. It leads to two coupled first order partial differential equations which, although they so far have not been solved in general, can be solved for many configurations. The application is to cosmic energetics: in other words to the study of the energy of the gravitational and other fields in the Universe.
