EPB’s grid also serves as a living laboratory for researchers at ORNL, just over an hour’s drive north. Since 2014, the lab has tested a wide range of technologies on the EPB system, such as
For critical infrastructure such as the nation’s power grid, the delay between identifying a cyberattack and mounting a defense could be catastrophic.
In a project leveraging computer vision, machine learning, and sensors, Oak Ridge National Laboratory scientists are working with private company GRIDSMART Technologies, Inc.
Singanallur “Venkat” Venkatakrishnan is helping scientists get a better view of objects under study by some of Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s most powerful instruments by creating algorithms that turn data into 3D renderings with fewer images.
As the nation’s power grid continues to become modernized, consumers and businesses will see more benefits, including greater reliability, faster restoration of service when disruptions occur, more use of renewables such as solar, and better information
Directing energy flows and syncing a home’s electricity generation sources like solar power with the utility grid would get a lot easier with a single, easy-to-use platform that is the aim of a recent research and development agreement between Oak Ridge
Dianne Bull Ezell has always been a problem solver. As a child she built a bridge of Lego pieces for fun.
Michelle Baldwin’s engineering work has taken her from the public to the private sector and back again, although it was not certain early in her academic career that she would pursue a technical field at all.
Michelle applies her technical programming exp
A unique, low-voltage test bed established at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is providing researchers a safe way to evaluate the operation and cybersecurity of equipment developed to support a growing number of microgrids—or local electric grids f
At the heart of Hector Santos-Villalobos’ work is the need to get a better look at the unknown, whether it is the structure of an underground geothermal reservoir, meter-thick concrete surrounding a nuclear reactor, or the fine details of the human eye.
