Energy Systems Integration Facility (ESIF): World-Class Systems Integration Capabilities and Research

The Energy Systems Integration Facility (ESIF), located at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) South Table Mountain campus, is a world-renowned user facility for research and development of modern, advanced, and clean energy technologies. ESIF is distinguished by its continuously evolving, highly integrated systems that span throughout the building, connecting research capabilities across multiple laboratories and test areas. The primary ESIF research systems include: [1] data, cyber, and control networks, [2] research electrical distribution buses (REDB), [3] thermal integration infrastructure, and [4] hydrogen systems. The data, cyber, and control networks provide monitoring, control, communication, automation, visualization, and time series data storage and tagging capabilities for research projects and ESIF systems, including facility safety functions. The REDB system consists of four dedicated AC and DC electrical power networks that can connect devices located across the facility through versatile, automatic circuit configuration to support complex power electronics experiments up to the megawatt-scale. The thermal integration infrastructure consists of three temperature-conditioned water loops that provide heating and cooling interfaces and capabilities for thermal energy research. The hydrogen systems provide megawatt-scale hydrogen production, drying, compression, high-pressure storage, and delivery to laboratory end uses, including hydrogen fuel cell vehicle fueling. The ESIF research systems interconnect and extend throughout the various lab areas of the facility to create elaborate networks composed of diverse technologies for cutting-edge research. The ESIF capabilities are operated and stewarded by the ESIF Research Operations group, who also actively upgrade and advance the systems to ensure they remain ahead of anticipated research - enabling the success of many pioneering energy integration projects. The poster, created by members of the ESIF Research Operations team, highlights and summarizes the four core integrated systems at ESIF. The poster was first presented at the internal NREL Energize Forum on May 13th, 2024, and received the "Best Poster" award.

A sticky situation: The heterogeneity and implications of magma mush unlocking

Magma, partially molten rock below Earth's surface, can be made up of both fluid (melt) and particles (crystals). The relative fraction of the fluid and particles matters for the magma's mobility and ability to reach Earth's surface. Here we conduct physical laboratory experiments to examine the mechanisms through which a magma becomes mobile and the speed at which pure melt and infiltrate a mixture of fluids and particles. The results have implications for understanding magma mobility and the mechanisms that move magma to Earth's surface. Poster presented at the 2025 International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of Earth's Interior Meeting (IAVCEI).

Isolated porosity: A Signature of Submarine Volcanism?

In this conference poster, we show that pumice clasts from submarine volcanoes contain more isolated pores than those from volcanoes that erupt on land. Isolated pores are void spaces that are disconnected from the clast's exterior and are unexpected because most pores coalesce in high total porosity pumice. We specifically, explore the presence of isolated pores in clasts from a 2019 eruption of Volcano F, Tonga and suggest that whole-clast cooling in water may help prevent bubble coalesce and preserve isolated pores. Poster presented at the 2025 International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of Earth's Interior Meeting (IAVCEI).

Burning Plasma Science: Long Pulse-Materials and Fusion Nuclear Science (Final Project Report)

The series of International Conferences on Fusion Reactor Materials (ICFRM) has been established nearly forty years ago as the major international forum for exchanging and archiving a growing knowledge based on the development of materials for both near and long-term fusion energy systems. The critical role of materials science and engineering in overcoming the technological challenges to making fusion energy a practical reality has been an overarching theme of invited and contributed oral talks as well as the poster session presentations. ICFRM is the premier international forum connecting specialists in the area of development of materials for both near and longer-term fusion energy systems. A central theme is the sharing of new insights, cutting-edge research, and technology in materials science pertaining to the realization of fusion energy. The conference consists of daily overview plenary lectures, invited and contributed oral presentations, and a series of technical poster sessions. In addition to hosted satellite meetings, pre-conference technical tutorials, and stimulating discussions. The 19th International Conference on Fusion Reactor Materials (ICFRM-19) was held in La Jolla, California, U.S.A. during the period October 27 through November 1, 2019. We describe here the conference background, topics, structure, program, schedule and timeline, publications, venue, satellite meetings, short courses and seminars, and finally the budget and expenses.

Measuring Vibronic Coupling and Ultrafast Charge Delocalization on Nanocrystal Surfaces Using Ligand-Specific Vibrational Probes

The primary goal of this proposal was to measure and quantify how vibronic ligand-exciton interactions at the inorganic-organic interface of semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) govern femtosecond non-radiative relaxation and charge delocalization mechanisms as a function of nanocrystal and ligand structures – including NC size, shape, and ligand identity. Molecular-scale chemical and physical properties and interactions of surface ligands dictate nanocrystal exciton dynamics on the femto-to-microsecond timescales. Improvements in synthesis, experimental, and theoretical characterizations have enhanced our understanding of NC photophysics. However, quantitative descriptions of complex ligand-exciton interactions at the NC surface have remained elusive, which limits elucidation of relaxation mechanisms that determine overall carrier transfer dynamics at the exciton-ligand interface. Thus, the central motivation for this proposal was to fill a significant knowledge gap for judicious selection of ligand-functionalized nanocrystals for targeted isolation and capture of charge carriers to drive selective organic photocatalytic transformations in NC photocatalysts and NC-assembled photonic materials. Our unique two-pronged experimental approach combining nanocrystal synthesis and ligand-specific nonlinear spectroscopy has resulted in (i) four peer-reviewed publications; (ii) 12+ invited and contributed posters and talks at national and international scientific meetings and seminars, (iii) two completed PhD theses, (iv) training of two postdoctoral researchers, three PhD students, and two undergraduate students, and (v) two manuscripts under preparation.
