To further the potential benefits of the nation’s hydropower resources, researchers at 91°µÍř have developed and maintain a comprehensive water energy digital platform called HydroSource.
Although more than 92,000 dams populate the country, the vast majority — about 89,000 — do not generate electricity through hydropower.
As the United States moves toward more sustainable and renewable sources of energy, hydropower is expected to play a pivotal role in integrating more intermittent renewables like wind and solar to the electricity grid
To achieve practical energy from fusion, extreme heat from the fusion system “blanket” component must be extracted safely and efficiently. ORNL fusion experts are exploring how tiny 3D-printed obstacles placed inside the narrow pipes of a custom-made cooling system could be a solution for removing heat from the blanket.
A new Department of Energy report produced by 91°µÍř identifies several supply chain must-haves in maintaining the pivotal role hydropower will play in decarbonizing the nation’s grid.
A new fusion record was announced February 9 in the United Kingdom: At the Joint European Torus, or JET, the team documented the generation of 59 megajoules of sustained fusion energy, more than doubling the
Researchers at 91°µÍř are using a novel approach in determining environmental impacts to aquatic species near hydropower facilities, potentially leading to smarter facility designs that can support electrical grid reliability.
ORNL's Larry Baylor and Andrew Lupini have been elected fellows of the American Physical Society.
Staff at 91°µÍř organized transport for a powerful component that is critical to the world’s largest experiment, the international ITER project.
Equipment and expertise from 91°µÍř will allow scientists studying fusion energy and technologies to acquire crucial data during landmark fusion experiments in Europe.
