Energy

The Energy Working Group is exploring a broader landscape of energy options including geothermal, nuclear, marine, and wind. From exploration and resource recovery, power generation and storage to transmission and distribution, how can composites drive efficiency and resiliency across the energy landscape? What technical advancements could enable onsite fabrication, faster installation, or extended service life? What other barriers stand in the way of scaling composite adoption in energy systems?
