Enthusiasm for geothermal energy is growing, including among oil and gas workers who are learning how they can apply their skills and experience to geothermal technology. Just ask these Geothermal Collegiate Competition winners.

DOE today announced its intent to issue multiple funding opportunity announcements totaling over $100 million for field demonstrations and other research to support better planning and operation of the electric grid.

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.

The U.S. Department of Energy funded the Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC) to address standalone energy storage and solar-plus-storage interconnection challenges on the distribution grid.

WETO plans to invest $5.1 million in research and technology development to advance modeling for offshore wind turbine blades at adverse conditions.

This proposed funding opportunity aims to improve mooring technologies and methods, which are used to secure floating platforms to the sea floor, for both the U.S. and Denmark.

This report from Idaho National Laboratory aims to raise awareness of proven areas of high cybersecurity risk, as well as highlight mitigation tactics that can help prevent similar attacks.

Microgrids are small electric grids that can operate while disconnected from the main grid. Learn how a new tool that networks multiple microgrids with solar-plus-storage together can lead to community resilience.
The university buildings manager has seen firsthand that, with geothermal energy providing heating and cooling, “You don’t have to sacrifice comfort or quality of life to reduce your energy usage.”

Hydropower facilities need updates to increase efficiency, improve energy reliability, and enhance community and grid resilience.
