Revolution...Now The Future Arrives for Five Clean Energy Technologies – 2016 Update

Decades of investments by the federal government and industry in five key clean energy technologies are making an impact today. The cost of land-based wind power, utility and distributed photovoltaic (PV) solar power, light emitting diodes (LEDs), and electric vehicles (EVs) has fallen by 41% to as high as 94% since 2008. These cost reductions have enabled widespread adoption of these technologies with deployment increasing across the board.

Transforming Energy through Computational Science: Computing for Clean Energy

This fact sheet discusses the opportunity space for NREL's computational science capabilities to address national clean energy objectives. Achieving a carbon-free power sector by 2035 as a step towards a decarbonized U.S. energy economy in 2050 will require major advances in power generation, autonomous energy systems, transportation, and buildings/communities. Development of integrated modeling approaches for complex energy systems will be essential for deployment. Success requires developments in optimization and control theory, complemented by machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), all of which in turn need targeted investments in breadth and scale of computing. This document defines an opportunity space where: embracing computing can link established research and development (R&D) to a decarbonization agenda; pursuing emerging approaches can accelerate the pace of technology advancement across the portfolio; and leading by example could reduce the carbon footprint of computing worldwide.

Clean Energy Transition for Transportation Systems: Modeling Implications

Transportation is currently the least-diversified energy demand sector, with over 90% of energy use coming from petroleum. As a result, transportation recently became the largest source of GHG emissions in the U.S. and mobility needs for passenger and freight are growing rapidly. However, after over a century of petroleum dominance, new disruptive technologies and business models offer a pathway to decarbonize the sector. Transportation is at a turning point. On the horizon lies a future where affordable and abundant renewable electricity can be used to power cost-competitive battery electric vehicles (EVs) and produce energy-dense low-carbon fuels enabling to fully decarbonize transportation systems across all modes. Exploring the clean energy transition for the multitude of different transportation systems requires new analytical modeling and approaches. This talk reviewed current work at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to develop and use innovative tools and analytics approaches to inform the transformation to a sustainable mobility future and the integration of transportation systems with the broader energy sector.

Clean Hydrogen Production: A Consortium Approach

Comprehensive, concerted efforts supported by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office (HFTO) are advancing research and development to demonstrate clean hydrogen production and industrial decarbonization pathways. These pathways enable an economically competitive and environmentally beneficial future energy system across sectors and can address specific applications that are difficult to decarbonize. We bridge technologies with other research areas across NREL and through multiple DOE and national lab research initiatives, consortia, and collaborations including: H2NEW: Hydrogen from Next-generation Electrolyzers of Water Consortium and HydroGEN: Advanced Water Splitting Materials Consortium, to advance the H2@Scale vision.

Cleaning up Hanford: A Deep Borehole Disposal Concept for the Cs/Sr Capsules - 16249

The Hanford site in Washington State is possibly the most radioactive-contaminated site in the USA presenting a major environmental problem requiring urgent clean-up. Sealed capsules containing halides of strontium (Sr) and cesium (Cs) account for over a third of the total radioactivity. Interim storage for a period of 10-half-lives is an unappealing option since many of the capsules contain Cs-135, which has a half-life of 2.3 million years, and the dose received from the shorter-lived isotopes would remain dangerously high for several generations. Deep geological disposal of the capsules would be a safer solution. We discuss a new and revised conceptual model for disposal of the entire Hanford capsule inventory in a single deep geological borehole with a diameter that could be as little as 31 cm. The concept involves placing thirty capsules inside a steel-disposal container. Holes up to this size are regularly drilled to depths much greater than 5 km by the hydrocarbon industry and are well within current drilling capabilities. Numerical modeling work demonstrates the feasibility of the conceptual model. In particular we examine the thermal envelope generated as a function of time enabling decisions to be made on possible fillings for the borehole annulus. Variations on the disposal concept include disposing different combinations of capsules to control the heat output and thus the temperature rise. The results lend support to a comment attributed to Secretary Moniz that the Hanford capsules could be the world's first HLW to be disposed of in a deep borehole. (authors)

Building a Clean Energy Workforce: An Evaluation Framework for State Energy Office Workforce Programs

This fact sheet is a summary of the workforce evaluation framework that was first proposed in the white paper, An Evaluation Framework for State Energy Offices' Energy Efficiency and Clean Energy Workforce Program. This evaluation framework was developed to guide State Energy Offices (SEOs) in assessing and enhancing the workforce development programs the manage, fund, or partner on. By following this step-by-step framework, SEOs can evaluate program components, identify areas for improvement, and optimize program outcomes for greater impact.
