MRCI Subtask 2.1: Defining Sub-Regional Carbon Storage Systems Final Technical Summary Report

In order to assess the regional and subregional geologic framework of the MRCI area and expand carbon dioxide (CO2) storage characterization efforts in this larger region, the current state of geologic knowledge relative to carbon storage (CS) has been summarized by compiling available geologic data and interpretive results into a centralized resource under Subtask 2.1. The MRCI region is a large area, which includes (1) part of the Forest City Basin and Western Arches, (2) Illinois Basin, (3) Upper Mississippi Embayment, (4) Michigan Basin, (5) Central Arches, (6) Appalachian Basin, and (7) Atlantic Coastal Plain and West Atlantic basins. Basins and arches are subdivided into areas of similar geology based on geologic structures and state-specific stratigraphic nomenclature. A concerted effort was made to present the current understanding of rock-unit stratigraphy in the subsurface of each basin and arch region (and subdivisions therein). Rock units are characterized based on their relative CS potential (saline reservoirs, confining intervals, etc.) within CS systems. CS systems are defined by regional confining units (usually thick, widespread shales), and contain all reservoirs and strata between the regional confining units.

Fiscal Year 2020 Annual Summary Report for the Area 3 and Area 5 Radioactive Waste Management Sites at the Nevada National Security Site, Nye County, Nevada

U.S. Department of Energy Standard DOE-STD-5002-2017, “Disposal Authorization Statement and Tank Closure Documentation,” requires preparation of an Annual Summary Report comparing low-level radioactive waste disposal facilities operations with the Disposal Authorization Statement (DAS) and its supporting technical documents including the performance assessment (PA) and the composite analysis (CA). The fiscal year (FY) 2020 Annual Summary Report for the Area 3 and Area 5 Radioactive Waste Management Sites (RWMSs) was prepared by reviewing planned and discovered changes, waste receipts, monitoring results, research and development (R&D) results, and the status of DAS conditions and issues to assess the validity of the DASs, PAs, and CAs.

This work was conducted in support of the American Made Geothermal Prize. The following data summary report presents the testing conducted at Sandia National Labs to validate the performance of the Ultra-High Temperature Seismic Tool for Geothermal Wells. The goal of the testing was to measure the sensitivity of the device to seismic vibrations and reliability of the instrument at elevated temperatures. To this end, two tests were conducted: 1) Ambient Temperature Seismic Testing, which measured the response of the tool to a sweep of frequencies from 1 to 1000 Hz, and 2) Elevated Temperature Survivability Testing which measured the voltage response of the device at 225°C over a month-long testing window. The details of the testing methodology and summary of the tests are presented herein.

Microgrid Fast Charging Station (MFCS) Design Platform Project (Summary Report)

This report documents the important steps and outcomes of the Microgrid Fast Charging Station (MFCS) Design Platform project, executed by XENDEE Corporation and its testing and validation by Idaho National Laboratory (INL). This final summary report builds on the first summary released on April 30th, 2021 and adds the final results from the Hardware in the Loop (HIL) simulations and tests, which have been completed July 14th 2021. With this report XENDEE Corporation and Idaho National Laboratory conclude the first version of the Microgrid Fast Charging Station (MFCS) Design Platform as well as all related tests and validations for two in-depth case studies for islanded and non-islanded operation. The platform itself utilizes XENDEE’s advanced modeling systems and INL’s HIL system to ensure project viability and technical feasibility. It also intelligently maps all cables, transformers, and distributed technology interactions to anticipate and mitigate problems during peak usage or adverse conditions. Finally, the system is designed to optimize dispatch and generation at each time step of the day allowing the Microgrid to take advantage of energy sales to the utility and best manage the charging of an electrical fleet. This allows operators to reliably build bankable Microgrid systems and to operate them to reach the maximum efficiency even under the dynamic needs of electric vehicle fast charging

Summary Report of the Reactive CO 2 Capture: Process Integration for the New Carbon Economy Workshop, February 18-19, 2020

This report provides a summary of feedback from the “Reactive CO 2 Capture: Process Integration for the New Carbon Economy” workshop held February 18-19, 2020. The focus of this workshop was to discuss approaches for merging carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) capture and CO 2 conversion/utilization systems into an integrated "reactive capture" strategy. By the workshop’s definition, reactive capture (RC) of CO 2 is the coupled process of capturing CO 2 from a mixed gas stream and converting it into a valuable product without going through a purified CO 2 intermediate. Participants were able to identify four key themes and associated calls to action for the reactive capture community: (1) essential role of partnerships; (2) critical challenges; (3) defining the value proposition; and (4) approach to support technological advancement.
