State and Community Energy Progralms

The Office of State and Community Energy Programs was established in January 2022 and is responsible for managing a portfolio of nearly $6 billion in funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and annual appropriations. 

The Office of State and Community Energy Programs works with state and local organizations to significantly accelerate the deployment of clean energy technologies, catalyze local economic development and create jobs, reduce energy costs, and avoid pollution through place-based strategies involving a wide range of government, community, business and other stakeholders.  

Foundational programs like the Weatherization Assistance Program and State Energy Program, which both have more than 40 years of successfully delivering energy savings across the country, will complement newly formed programs such as the Local Government Energy Program and Energy Futures Grants, enabling DOE to work for the first time ever, with local governments and communities for the long term.  

Through the disbursement of formula grants, DOE will extend the core capabilities of state energy offices and expand the weatherization provider network to assist low-income families with home energy retrofits. Competitive awards will further the innovation by states and local governments seeking to implement high-impact and self-sustaining clean energy projects. In addition, technical assistance will help to facilitate clean energy programs and practices through "best practice" tools, “lead-by-example” methods, peer-to-peer forums, and other strategic partnerships.

Database of congener-specific half-lives of polychlorinated biphenyls

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of 209 chemicals with varying chlorine substitutions that influence their absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME). These differences affect how PCBs behave in the body, including their lipophilicity, tissue distribution, and biological half-life. Humans and animals can absorb PCBs through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact, with the compounds accumulating in fatty tissues and eliminating at variable rates—some over decades.

Pharmacokinetic (PK) models help estimate internal doses and assess health risks by accounting for species-specific ADME properties. However, modeling PCBs is challenging due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, and structural diversity. While PK models can support risk assessment and interspecies extrapolation, they require accurate data—particularly biological half-lives, which are unavailable for many congeners.

This study aims to compile half-life data for individual PCB congeners from the literature in support of future explorations of the use of Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) models to predict half-lives of unstudied congeners using structural features like chlorine substitution patterns, building on prior work.

Database curation: The HERO PCBs project page (https://hero.epa.gov/hero/index.cfm/project/page/project_id/384) was searched using terms related to half-life or elimination. Studies retrieved by the literature search were screened to identify studies containing PCB congener half-life data. Select details from each relevant study were entered into the database (e.g., citation information, congener name and number, exposure context, population descriptors, biological matrix, and reported half-life).

Estimating biotic integrity to capture existence value of freshwater ecosystems

Estimating the value of changes in water quality requires the definition of biophysical features that link changes in ecosystems to changes in social systems. Those linking features must be interpretable to people and serve as effective ecological indicators. This work defines a linking feature that is appropriate for capturing existence values in a forthcoming national stated preference survey of Clean Water Act regulations. Further, we modeled and spatially predicted this feature to account for the dependence of survey respondents’ preference on baseline aquatic conditions near them. We outline steps to provide insights on the mechanisms that will aid in forecasting changes in the linking feature in responses to candidate policy options.

Utah FORGE: Neubrex Well 16B(78)-32 DAS Data - April 2024

This dataset comprises Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) data collected from the Utah FORGE monitoring well 16B(78)-32 (the producer well) during hydraulic fracture stimulation operations conducted in April 2024. The data were acquired continuously over the stimulation period at a temporal sampling rate of 10,000 Hz (10 kS/s) and a spatial resolution of approximately 3.35 feet (1.02109 meters). The measurements were captured using a Neubrex NBX-S4100 Time Gated Digital DAS interrogator unit connected to a single-mode fiber optic cable, which was permanently installed within the casing string. All recorded channels correspond to downhole segments of the fiber optic cable, from a measured depth (MD) of 5,369.35 feet to 10,352.11 feet.

The DAS data reflect raw acoustic energy generated by physical processes within and surrounding the well during stimulation activities at wells 16A(78)-32 and 16B(78)-32. These data have potential applications in analyzing cross-well strain, far-field strain rates (including microseismic activity), induced seismicity, and seismic imaging. Metadata embedded in the attributes of the HDF5 files include detailed information on the measured depths of the channels, interrogation parameters, and other acquisition details.

The dataset also includes a recording of a seminar held on September 19, 2024, where Neubrex's Chief Operating Officer presented insights into the data collection, analysis, and preliminary findings. The raw data files, stored in HDF5 format, are organized chronologically according to the recording intervals from April 9 to April 24, 2024, with each file corresponding to a 12-second recording interval.
