Growing the quantum workforce by making education accessible to all
DOE/Lawrence Berkeley National LaboratoryThe Quantum Systems Accelerator's summer camp (QCaMP) for high school students in New Mexico and California continues to evolve and grow. Under the 2023 Reaching a New Energy Sciences Workforce (RENEW) Pathway Summer School initiative, the DOE Office of Science awarded new funding to expand QCaMP's curricula and host students on-site at Berkeley Lab and Sandia Labs in 2024.
Pairing artificial intelligence with award-winning battery health measurement technology
DOE/Idaho National LaboratoryIndustry needs better ways to diagnose the batteries that power these devices to ensure their safety, performance and reliability from inception to recycling.
Borrowing semiconductor industry know-how to make better batteries
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryFor the first time ever, Argonne researchers demonstrate a semiconductor coating technique for use on the powder form of sulfur-containing, solid battery electrolytes.
How microelectronics will take computing to new heights
DOE/Argonne National LaboratorySecretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm celebrates revolutionary X-ray laser upgrade at SLAC
DOE/SLAC National Accelerator LaboratoryAt the root of bulked-up plants
DOE/Oak Ridge National LaboratoryOak Ridge National Laboratory scientists identified a gene “hotspot” in the poplar tree that triggers dramatically increased root growth. The discovery supports development of better bioenergy crops and other plants that can thrive in difficult conditions while storing more carbon belowground.
Entrepreneurship program at Argonne opens applications for startups
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryChain Reaction Innovations, the entrepreneurship program at Argonne National Laboratory, seeks innovators to embed at Argonne and develop their clean energy or climate technologies.
If you build a test facility, developers will come
DOE/Idaho National LaboratoryNational Reactor Innovation Center (NRIC) is now designing and constructing two fields, in the form of nuclear testing facilities known as test beds at Idaho National Laboratory (INL).
Modeling a net-zero future: Energy experts harness simulation for global decarbonization
DOE/Argonne National LaboratoryThe Department of Energy’s Net Zero World Initiative promotes knowledge exchange and fosters global decarbonization community.
