## Innovation Crossroads helps Shift Thermal keep things cool

April 15, 2024

Shift Thermal, a member of Innovation Crossroads’ first cohort of fellows, is commercializing advanced ice thermal energy storage for HVAC, shifting the cooling process to be more sustainable, cost-effective and resilient. Shift Thermal wants to enable a lower-cost, more-efficient thermal energy storage method to provide long-duration resilient cooling when the electric grid is down. 

## Three ORNL IP projects advance toward Lab MATCH Prize

April 12, 2024

Three ORNL intellectual property projects with industry partners have advanced in DOE's Office of Technology Transitions Making Advanced Technology Commercialization Harmonized, or Lab MATCH, prize, which encourages entrepreneurs to find actionable pathways that bring lab-developed intellectual property to market. 

## City without walls: Buildings, energy, psychology overlap for researcher Frank Li

March 1, 2024

Although he built his career around buildings, Fengqi “Frank” Li likes to break down walls. Li was trained as an architect, but he doesn’t box himself in. Currently he is working as a computational developer at ORNL. But Li considers himself a designer. To him, that’s less a box than a plane – a landscape scattered with ideas, like destinations on a map that can be connected in different ways. 

## DOE’s Building Technologies Office announces JUMP into STEM competition winners at ORNL

February 28, 2024

Students with a focus on building science will spend 10 weeks this summer interning at ORNL, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and Pacific Northwest Laboratory as winners of the DOE’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy’s Building Technologies Office sixth annual JUMP into STEM finals competition.

## ORNL study projects geothermal heat pumps’ impact on carbon emissions and electrical grid by 2050

February 14, 2024

A modeling analysis led by ORNL gives the first detailed look at how geothermal energy can relieve the electric power system and reduce carbon emissions if widely implemented across the United States within the next few decades. 

## DeGraw named ASHRAE Fellow

February 7, 2024

The American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers, or ASHRAE, selected Jason DeGraw, a researcher with ORNL, as one of 23 members elevated to Fellow during its 2024 winter conference.

## Encapsulating low-carbon materials 

February 1, 2024

ORNL researchers have developed a novel way to encapsulate salt hydrate phase-change materials within polymer fibers through a coaxial pulling process. The discovery could lead to the widespread use of the low-carbon materials as a source of insulation for a building’s envelope.

## ORNL wins five Federal Laboratory Consortium awards

January 22, 2024

Four ORNL teams and one researcher were recognized for excellence in technology transfer and technology transfer innovation.  

## ORNL engineer Karen White honored with Lifetime Achievement Award 

December 1, 2023

Karen White, who works in ORNL’s Neutron Science Directorate, has been honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award.

## Boosting thermal energy storage with polyelectrolytes

November 15, 2023

ORNL researchers demonstrated that an additive made from polymers and electrolytes improves the thermal performance and stability of salt hydrate phase change materials, or PCMs, a finding that could advance their integration into carbon-reducing heat pumps.
