DOE announced funding to two wind energy projects as part of a program to ensure research funding is reaching the pockets of the country that traditionally have received disproportionately low amounts of Federal scientific funding.

Wind energy has joined the energy mainstream, thanks in large part to the wind integration studies funded by the Wind Energy Technologies Office.

The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory reviewed studies that focused on the technical evaluation of offshore wind energy transmission through potential points of interconnection along the coastlines of California, Oregon, and Washington.

DOE announced $26 million for eight projects to demonstrate how solar power, wind energy, energy storage, and other renewable energy resources can support a reliable and efficient U.S. power grid.

A new study shows that both power generation and energy storage are seeking connection to the grid at high rates that only continue to grow, thanks in large part to a surge of interest in renewable energy.

Sandia National Laboratories released a report on its recent accomplishments in wind energy.

Researchers at Lehigh University, Clemson University, and Oregon State University have developed hybrid testing capabilities to help advance the next generation of offshore wind systems using physical and virtual conditions.

DOE launched the second round of a workforce development program that matches recent graduates and new energy professionals to key energy organizations to support efforts to advance renewable energy solutions.

DOE’s Office of Electricity, WETO, and Solar Energy Technologies Office has issued a new funding opportunity to help accelerate grid-enhancing technologies that can facilitate renewable energy, like dynamic line rating and power flow controllers.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s WETO and Grid Deployment Office are launching a study on transmission options to support offshore wind development along the U.S. West Coast in the Pacific Ocean through 2050, funded by the Inflation Reduction Act.
