The first-ever prize from WETO, the FLOWIN Prize will help pave the way for the cost-effective domestic manufacture and deployment of commercial utility-scale floating offshore wind energy turbines in U.S. waters.

This year’s Technology Commercialization Fund is currently accepting submissions aimed at accelerating the commercialization of critical renewable energy technologies.

WETO is supporting an open call and invites applications for technology innovations that address technology gaps for distributed, land-based, and offshore wind.

Researchers have developed a new strategy to help build materials with unique optical, magnetic, electronic and catalytic properties.

Kurtis Cantley, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at Boise State U, will conduct machine learning hardware research.

Francisco Zaera is a physical chemist at UCR specializing in catalysts, which are used in a variety of industrial processes to speed up reactions.

Timothy Durrett and Ruth Welti will use the grant to improve oilseed crops for use as biofuels and other bioproducts.

An EM project at the Idaho National Laboratory Site successfully obtained important mapping and radiological data in what is believed to be the world’s first piloted drone mission inside a high-level radioactive waste storage vault.

EM Senior Advisor William “Ike” White and Associate Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Field Operations Nicole Nelson-Jean last week visited the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP), where they received briefings on key projects.

Trevor Dolby attended the EM Nevada Program Groundwater Open House here last month to learn more about the quality of the water in his rural community.
