DOE announced funding of over $21 million towards 30 renewable energy projects.

Airfoils are the foundation of turbine blade designs. Generating lift and drag when they move through the air, airfoils play a key role in improving the aerodynamic performance and structural durability of a turbine’s blades.

WETO announces additional funding, including funds from the landmark Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, for two small businesses working to accelerate wind energy deployment.

A Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researcher discusses her past as a software engineer and NASA contractor, her current efforts in wind energy ecology, and her advice for those who aspire to work 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 announced $150 million for research into the crosscutting foundational science for multiple Energy Earthshots, including the Floating Offshore Wind Shot.

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 first Renewable Energy Champion of the year is Jason Jonkman, a principal engineer in wind energy from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.

WETO-funded research teams from three national laboratories are working proactively to strengthen security measures, policies, and information technology infrastructure.
