  • Meet Jay, our next #OEEmployeeSpotlight! Jay is a Budget Analyst in OE's Corporate Business Office. ?????? He has worked here for 12 years, assisting the OE divisions in planning, executing, and analyzing appropriated funds plus working with leadership to manage the Program Direction funds (the funding that is appropriated for federal staff, travel, training, etc.). Jay's favorite OE project was working on recovery efforts for Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, & Maria due to the direct assistance that project provided to the affected residents. But he also enjoys his day-to-day interactions with coworkers and the passion the OE staff has for its mission! Jay's interest in energy first sparked while he was working in the automotive industry. His automotive work led to an interest in the future of transportation and how the energy grid would be a critical component for that sector. Did you know the following about Jay? Neither did we! ?? Favorite Color: Blue and Black Cats or Dogs: Dogs–he has 4 Boxers! ?? Best Way to Relax: Riding his motorcycle

  • #ICYMI: We recently announced a Request for Information (RFI) to obtain input to advise the planning of OE’s Applied Grid Transformation Solutions (AGTS) program. The RFI is seeking insights on grid technology adoption and input related to domestic, publicly accessible facilities (“test beds”) that perform testing, evaluation, validation, and certification of transmission and distribution (T&D) grid hardware and software technologies. Remember to submit responses by February 28, 2025. https://bit.ly/3WmKotp

    • Graphic promoting feedback on the Applied Grid Transformation Solutions RFI by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Electricity. It features an intricate view through the structure of a high-voltage power tower in monochrome blue tones, with the text overlay emphasizing the deadline of February 28, 2025.

  • ?? Reminder: Applications for the Blue Sky Training Program are due in just 2 weeks! The Blue Sky Training Program provides critical training for first responders, law enforcement, utilities, and local authorities on how to respond to unanticipated failures of energy storage systems. Participants will engage in planning exercises and on-the-ground drills to build safer, more resilient communities. ??? Deadline: February 2, 2025 ??? Apply today: https://bit.ly/3WdRKQ0 Don't miss this opportunity to enhance community readiness and safety!

  • ? Exciting updates from the January edition of "OE Grid Galaxy!"?? This month's issue celebrates Assistant Secretary Gene Rodrigues' impactful tenure, highlighting collaborations with scientists, policymakers, and utilities to advance a reliable, resilient, secure, and affordable power grid for all Americans. Featured topics include a blog on integrating Small Modular Reactors into university microgrids, a request for comment on the draft Energy Storage Strategy and Roadmap targeting U.S. energy storage needs by 2030, and the recognition of this year's Secretary of Energy Achievement Award recipients. Explore these stories and more in the full newsletter. ??

  • Looking for money for your energy storage technology solutions? ?? We've got a new #FundingOpportunity for you! To expand energy storage solutions for Americans, we're announcing the Aligning Manufacturability & Pre-production Design (AMPD) for Storage Technologies notice of funding opportunity (NOFO). The AMPD NOFO aims to improve the manufacturability of energy storage technologies through early-stage design, which will increase domestic manufacturing. These innovations may also improve safety and performance AND reduce the overall cost to consumers. AMPD NOFO-supported design innovations may also help compress development timelines and strengthen the community of domestic technology developers and manufacturers through teaming partnerships!
