NETL researchers recently scaled up hydrogen production tests by increasing the catalyst load from 500 grams to 4.5 kilograms, a significant step toward advancing the hydrogen production technology needed for a clean energy future.

NETL recently hosted a contingent of undergraduate students from colleges and universities in western Pennsylvania without large in-house research programs as part of an initiative to expand the talent pool of next-generation researchers with skills in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) today announced its intent to issue funding in support of research and development projects done in cooperation with industry and academia to solve climate change challenges.

NETL and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management will explore ways to collaborate toward a carbon pollution-free energy future during the 2024 Low Emission Advanced Power (LEAP) Workshop Sept. 15–18, 2024. Scheduled to be held in Washington, D.C., the event will be co-located with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) 2024 Power Conference.

The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) recently recognized NETL’s Scott Crawford, Ph.D., as an outstanding peer reviewer for the open access journal RSC Advances. Peer review is an essential component for improving the quality and impact of published research while also ensuring that the research is conducted with integrity.

NETL’s Justin Weber explained how cutting-edge applications of artificial intelligence (AI) are revolutionizing the nation’s energy systems analysis activities during the AI Expo for National Competitiveness in Washington, D.C.

An NETL-developed technology improves the strength of cement by up to 30% and enhances durability by 60% using nanostructured carbon additives made from charred coal fine waste.

Despite her hectic schedule, NETL’s Erin Behrman has found a way to successfully juggle work, family and other responsibilities while her husband serves at a U.S. Army post more than 1,700 miles away.

NETL has launched a Geospatial and Information Substitution and Anonymization (GISA) Tool that provides users with access to detailed data while protecting sensitive information, balancing data accessibility with privacy concerns.

The Interagency Working Group on Coal and Power Plant Communities and Economic Revitalization (Energy Communities IWG), which is supported by NETL, has been awarded a second-place 2024 Blue Pencil & Gold Screen Award from the National Association of Government Communicators for the “Catalyzing Economic Development in Pennsylvania’s Energy Communities” event held Oct. 20, 2023, at Westmoreland County Community College in Youngwood, Pennsylvania.
