Abstract

The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) Fiscal Year 2021 Site Sustainability Plan details the laboratory's current performance status relative federal mandates and goals pertaining to water, waste, fleet, and energy management; clean and renewable energy; green buildings; acquisition and procurement; measures, funding, and training; electronic stewardship; and organizational resilience. It also provides a road map for future site planning and development that support NREL's commitment to business operations that 1) demonstrate the incorporation of clean energy practices and 2) promote the development of a sustainable and resilient campus while growing greater technological capabilities to advance the national renewable energy marketplace.

Experiments and Project-Based Enhancements for STEM Learning

Motivating K-12 students to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is an effort that requires consistent engagement. Throughout the K-12 student timeline, STEM educators need to continuously pivot their teaching and update their educational materials to motivate the next generation of students. Once students begin their undergraduate education, university professors need to encourage them to consider pursuing graduate studies to ensure that a qualified future workforce can be developed for research and teaching. In this paper, we present our work on developing STEM materials for K-12 student engagement. Our K-12 materials target the grid integration of hydrogen assets that are suitable to engage students in the classroom. Our undergraduate materials target hands-on projects and collaboration with industry to connect classroom learning with real-world applications and needs in renewable energy. Our work leverages available open-source models and tools to create projects for undergraduate students and motivate their interest in pursuing research topics in graduate-level education.
