The following press release was published by the U.S. Dept. of Energy, Office of Electricity on Oct. 19, 2021. It is reproduced in full below.

On May 19 and May 20, DOE’s Office of Electricity (OE) hosted a Transmission Innovation Symposium focused on Modernizing the U.S. Power Grid.

The Symposium Proceedings are now posted.

The symposium featured presentations and panel discussions about five DOE-commissioned white papers on transmission R&D priorities. Each white paper assessed the current and future challenges facing the U.S critical infrastructure from the perspective of the technologies that will be required to address these challenges. The Office of Electricity will be relying on the white papers and symposium proceedings to inform its future R&D programs.
