Power companies and electric grid developers turn to simulation tools as they attempt to understand how modern equipment will be affected by rapidly unfolding events in a complex grid.

Researchers at 91°µÍø have opened a new virtual library where visitors can check out waveforms instead of books. So far, more than 350 users worldwide have utilized the library, which provides vital understanding of an increasingly complex grid.

In the wet, muddy places where America’s rivers and lands meet the sea, scientists from the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø are unearthing clues to better understand how these vital landscapes are evolving under climate change.

Leadership Tennessee has named Clarice Phelps to its 2024–2025 Signature Program Class XI to collaborate with professionals statewide to address Tennessee’s most serious issues.

Sara Martinez ensures the safety and longevity of aging structures at 91°µÍø, employing her engineering expertise to protect against natural disasters and extend the lifespan of critical facilities.

Phani Ratna Vanamali Marthi, an R&D associate in the Power Systems Resilience group at ORNL, has been elevated to the grade of senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, the world’s largest technical professional

Researchers at 91°µÍø have developed free data sets to estimate how much energy any building in the contiguous U.S. will use in 2100. These data sets provide planners a way to anticipate future energy needs as the climate changes.

Early career scientist Frankie White's was part of two major isotope projects at the same time he was preparing to be a father. As co-lead on a team that achieved the first synthesis and characterization of a radium compound using single crystal X-ray diffraction and part of a team that characterized the properties of promethium, White reflects on the life-changing timeline at work, and at home.

Lætitia H. Delmau, a distinguished researcher and radiochemist at 91°µÍø, has received the 2024 Glenn T. Seaborg Actinide Separations Award.

John Lagergren, a staff scientist in 91°µÍøâ€™s Plant Systems Biology group, is using his expertise in applied math and machine learning to develop neural networks to quickly analyze the vast amounts of data on plant traits amassed at ORNL’s Advanced Plant Phenotyping Laboratory.
