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.
This opportunity will fund $48 million of projects that address several major areas of need for offshore wind, including accelerating research and development of offshore wind platforms, expanding the reach of the domestic supply chain, improving offshore wildlife protection through new monitoring technologies, and advancing U.S. academic leadership in floating offshore wind.
More than 60 organizations have committed to making semiconductor applications, including data centers, more energy efficient.
The U.S. Department of Energy is advancing ambitious decarbonization targets for the maritime transportation sector, both domestically and internationally. DOE is teaming with over 15 government and industry partners in Singapore to foster partnerships and collaborate on renewable energy solutions aimed at achieving net zero-emissions in the maritime sector by 2050.
A major airline is working with DOE to accelerate the production of sustainable aviation fuel.
More than 85% percent of a solar photovoltaic (PV) module is made of materials we already know how to recycle, like aluminum and glass. However, solar panel recycling—and recycling overall—is not currently cost-effective or widely adopted.
Wind Forecast Improvement Project will Monitor Weather, Ocean, and Wildlife Data Near Active and Proposed Offshore Wind Farms off the East Coast
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.
A new Berkley Lab analysis finds that despite an expected future reduction in the number of turbines per power plant, the total estimated annual energy output of wind plants will increase due to larger, more powerful wind turbines.
WETO is seeking information about research needed to support the growth of the domestic offshore wind industry, including supply chain expansion in currently underutilized U.S. regions.
