This innovative system collects behavioral data for birds and bats in the vicinity of wind turbines to help the wind industry meet monitoring requirements for development of proposed wind farm sites.

This May marked the completion of the 18th Energy I-Corps cohort, bringing the total number of graduated teams to 226! To celebrate completion of the program, Cohort 18 teams convened in Washington, D.C. and shared their work with key stakeholders.

Jean P. Pabón, pictured, program manager with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Environmental Management (EM) Office of Technology Operations, focused on artificial intelligence and machine learning as part of the Federal Remediation Technologies Roundtable last week.

Energy I-Corps is a key initiative of our office that ensures the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) investment in the national labs maintains and strengthens long-term U.S. competitiveness.

Thanks to funding from the Wind Energy Technologies Office, the Massachusetts Renewable Energy Center’s Wind Technology Testing Center (WTTC) is testing next-generation wind turbine blades.

WETO released a roadmap assessing current practices, and future challenges and needs for operating and maintaining U.S. offshore wind farms, as well as specific recommendations for technology innovations that could help address the identified needs and gaps.

The Water Power Technologies Office and Oak Ridge National Laboratory opened a new technical collaboration opportunity for industry partners interested in developing innovative hydropower technologies using advanced materials and manufacturing.

International collaboration supported by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Wind Energy Technologies Office has led to the development of standards for the wind energy industry.

The DOE-NASA Mod-Series Wind Turbine Program precedes the modern wind energy industry in the United States. For over two decades, with five distinct models built, the program helped shape a cost-competitive wind energy industry through funding and R&D.
