Office of Electricity
政府管理
DOE’s Office of Electricity works with the public & private sectors to modernize U.S. critical electric infrastructure.
关于我们
A secure and resilient power grid is vital to national security, economic security, and the services Americans rely upon. Working closely with industry and other stakeholders, the Office of Electricity leads the Department’s efforts to ensure that the Nation’s electricity delivery system is secure and resilient to disruptions. These efforts will strengthen, transform, and improve electricity infrastructure so consumers have access to resilient, secure, and clean sources of energy.

Energy storage is key to modernizing our electric grid and maximizing value for consumers. By integrating energy storage and grid-edge technology, consumers can reduce their reliance on the grid, lower energy costs, and contribute to grid stability. To accelerate innovation, OE is launching the $200,000 Beyond the Meter Energy Storage Integration Prize. This initiative encourages companies to showcase behind-the-meter grid-edge technologies to create a more distributed and resilient energy system. These technologies are crucial to reduce dependence on traditional energy sources while maximizing value for consumers through increased energy reliability and cost savings. We're also soft launching the $300,000 Energy Storage Innovations Prize Round 2, focusing on less conventional use cases (e.g., remote and/or underserved communities, extreme climates) and innovative (less mature) energy storage technology solutions, across all duration scales, to advance the market landscape.
