About the Office of Electricity


The mission of the Office of Electricity (OE) is to lead the Department of Energy’s research, development, and demonstration programs to strengthen and modernize our nation’s power grid so that our nation maintains a reliable, resilient, and secure electricity delivery infrastructure. OE's vision includes working closely with industry and other stakeholders to drive technological and operational advancements that ensure that every American home and business has reliable access to affordable energy, and that the U.S. sustains its global leadership in energy transformation.

 

 

About the OE Energy Storage Division

 

The Energy Storage Division prepares the “next generation” of energy storage technologies to provide system reliability, resilience, and efficiency. This division advances research to identify safe, low-cost, and earth-abundant elements for cost-effective long-duration energy storage. OE’s development of innovative tools improves storage reliability and safety, analysis, and performance validation.

 

 

What will I be doing?

 

OE’s Energy Storage Division is seeking DOE Science, Technology, and Policy (STP) fellows, through ORISE, to participate in its research efforts to rapidly deploy technologies commercially and expedite grid-scale energy storage in meeting future grid demands. Fellows joining the Energy Storage Division can expect to:

 

Participate in gathering and analyzing relevant technical information (e.g., technology status, cost, R&D opportunities). Attend relevant meetings/conferences/workshops and summarize learnings/findings, as appropriate. The OE Energy Storage Division has several developmental opportunities available for fellows to gain hands-on experience under the guidance of an OE mentor.

 

Participant Provisions

 

Selected candidates will receive a stipend. Amounts are determined by DOE officials, based on the candidate’s academic and professional background, starting at approximately:
