CERAWeek 2024
Exploring strategies for a multidimensional, multispeed and multifuel energy transition across the energy value chain
Houston
Meet the Department of Energy and its National Laboratories at CERAWeek
At CERAWeek, the Department of Energy (DOE) and representatives from its national laboratories will share information about how, together, they’re delivering on the promise of a clean energy transition that renews our nation’s infrastructure, rebuilds domestic manufacturing, creates millions of good-paying jobs, and increases American competitiveness.
Featured Presentations

National Labs Accelerating Energy Transition
Speaker: Steven Ashby, PNNL Laboratory Director
Time: 4:30–5:10 P.M. CT
Steve Ashby is a panelist in a discussion focused on the role of national laboratories in accelerating the energy transition. The session, moderated by Atul Arya of S&P Global Commodity Insights, will also include senior leaders from other national laboratories including John Wagner of Idaho National Laboratory, Doug Arent of National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Paul Kearns of Argonne National Laboratory, and Erin Searcy of Idaho National Laboratory.
PNNL Hydrogen Research Featured in Agora House
In the Department of Energy (DOE) Accelerator Room, DOE is showcasing how it helps innovators build the technology that is unlocking the clean energy transition, with specific national laboratory contributions in these technology areas on display: geothermal, hydrogen, carbon management, industrial decarbonization, and critical minerals.
PNNL’s solid oxide electrolyzer cells, which offer the ability to efficiently generate hydrogen from water without platinum, palladium, nafion, or other expensive materials, will be on display.
PNNL's Hydrogen Research and Development
PNNL leads four areas of research, development, and innovation to advance hydrogen and fuel cells:
- Production: lowering the cost of green hydrogen.
- Infrastructure: decreasing cost and increasing safety of infrastructure, which includes focus on materials, storage, and liquefaction.
- Use: advancing grid support, power generation, and fuel cell research and development.
- Safety: tools and educational materials co-developed by PNNL as part of the Center for Hydrogen Safety.
