NETL Experts to Present at DOE’s Cybersecurity and Technology Innovation Conference
NETL expertise and products associated with the use of artificial intelligence (AI) for energy related research and results reporting will be on display at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Cybersecurity and Technology Innovation Conference May 8-11 at Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The conference is designed to explore the developments and challenges in cybersecurity, technology innovation, workforce development and critical infrastructure protection. The theme for the event is “Collaborative Innovation and Collective Cyber Defense. Registration for the conference is open.
Secretary of Energy’s Achievement Award
A scientist advancing technology to recover rare earth elements, a team incorporating big data capabilities into a platform to accelerate discoveries, and researchers who developed a suite of sorbents to remove contaminants are NETL’s recipients of Secretary’s Honor Awards from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm noted the annual awards recognize outstanding achievements of individuals and teams who have gone above and beyond in fulfilling DOE’s mission and serving the nation.
NETL’s Energy Data Exchange Sees 10 Years of Excellence
The Energy Data eXchange (EDX), an NETL-developed virtual library and data laboratory built to advance fossil energy and environmental research and development (R&D), celebrates its 10th anniversary this month. EDX supports the entire lifecycle of data by offering secure, private collaborative workspaces to help scientists maximize their research potential and further critical technology advancements. The virtual tool has seen wide success since its inception and is in a prime position to support the artificial intelligence and machine learning big data revolution currently under way.
NETL’s Energy Data Exchange Provides the Data And Tools for the Transition to a Clean Energy Economy
NETL’s Energy Data eXchange (EDX) has served as a virtual platform for the public curation of research data and tools for more than a decade, bringing together researchers from across the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM). Now, as the Biden Administration begins the transition to a clean energy economy, the data and models available through EDX are helping shape this new future where federal leadership will partner with power plant communities to create good-paying union jobs, spur economic revitalization, mediate environmental degradation and support energy workers.
NETL Leads in Data Management and Curation at Virtual DOE Data Days Conference
NETL highlighted its expertise in data management and curation at the virtual U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Data days Conference (D3), which recently released its final report on conference proceedings. Researchers from the Lab were integral in the organization of the conference and had many opportunities to share how NETL is ensuring enduring and efficient access to data resources and exploring novel solutions to a number of challenges, from improving data accessibility to developing novel data-science tools and more.
National Lab Collaborates on Robust Data Curation to Drive Innovations for the Energy Department
Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) are working with data science leadership and experts from DOE’s Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) to develop powerful new cloud computing capabilities that are harnessing the power of big data to advance energy research and data computing across the Department.
Critical Minerals Sustainability
To address the challenge of leading our nation to secure national independence from rare earth element (REE) offshore reliance, DOE performed an initial assessment under its Feasibility of Recovering Rare Earth Elements program to assess the potential recovery of REE from coal, coal by-products, and waste materials. This included run-of-mine coal, coal refuse (mineral matter that is removed from coal), clay/sandstone over/under-burden materials, ash (coal combustion residuals), aqueous effluents such as acid mine drainage (AMD), and associated solids and precipitates resulting from AMD treatment.
Energy Under Our Feet: SubTER Initiative Taps into Geothermal’s Potential
Beneath the surface of the Earth, there lies the potential to satisfy more than four-fifths of our nation’s energy needs. How do we optimize how we manage and invest this vast energy resource?
The Department of Energy (DOE) has formed a first-of-its-kind team: the Subsurface Technology and Engineering Research, Development, and Demonstration (SubTER) initiative. SubTER aims to improve energy security, environmental protection, and economic and social benefits by addressing issues including: increasing U.S. electricity production from geothermal reservoirs; safe storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) to meet greenhouse gas emissions reductions targets; and drinking water protection.
NETL’s Energy Data eXchange Connects Researchers to Fossil Energy Resources
The complex challenges associated with fossil energy research require collaborative, cross-disciplinary approaches and quick, efficient access to resources. However, collaboration between multiple organizations, from academia to industry, can be difficult. Multi-organizational teams working jointly on research projects often encounter problems with data sharing due to large file sizes, inappropriate file formats, or other inefficient options that make collaboration difficult. The Energy Data eXchange (EDX) from DOE’s National Energy Technology Laboratory helps to overcome these challenges by serving as an online system to facilitate internal access to research that crosscuts multiple NETL projects/programs and external access to technical products and data published by NETL research teams.
Nexus Of Knowledge
In May 2010—nearly two weeks after the Macondo tragedy—the National Incident Command, in charge of the continuing emergency response efforts to halt the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, turned to U.S. scientists. The Flow Rate Technical Group, a diverse collection of scientists and engineers from 11 federal laboratories, universities and research institutions, including the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), was assembled to establish an accurate estimate of flow rate that was being discharged into the Gulf of Mexico. This mission required efficient and timely access to data, analytical tools and coordination capabilities to effectively handle the challenges associated with this multiorganization collaboration.
Clearing the Hurdles: NETL’s Energy Data eXchange
Communication is the foundation of any good relationship, from the romantic to the scientific, but surmounting the barriers that surround establishing fruitful research partnerships can be daunting. Data sets are often too large to be easily transferred between organizations and secure workspaces are not always accessible. NETL’s Energy Data eXchange, or EDX, is designed to help scientists foster the communication that undergirds successful, collaborative research

DOE-NETL’s Energy Data eXchange, or EDX, is a knowledge-sharing network being built to help researchers team up through a virtual platform. EDX houses internal energy-related data and links to externally hosted data resources. It also provides data-driven tools and applications to make energy research—including research relate to deepwater exploration and production—easy, efficient, and collaborative.
EDX Share and Share Alike
At NETL, sharing energy technical knowledge and expertise just got a whole lot easier. The Laboratory’s Office of Research and Development has recently launched the Energy Data eXchange, or EDX, a knowledge-sharing network built to provide a single source for fossil energy-related datasets and the tools to use them. EDX is designed to make research and other data generated by NETL researchers, other EDX users, and outside agencies available almost instantly through a common portal that features key tools to support analysis and evaluation.
