In recent years, the frequency of weather-related natural disasters—cyclones, torrential rains, floods—has increased as a consequence of global warming. These disasters cause billions of dollars in ...

EPA has long used computer and mathematical models as part of its regulatory activity. The agency employs them to simulate what happens to pollutants in the environment, to estimate the effects of ...

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have developed a dynamic modeling method that uses machine learning to provide accurate simulations of grid behavior and ...

To create a more resilient electric grid that meets the nation’s increasing power demands, utilities are incorporating a wider array of energy sources. But this shift requires the ability to predict ...

ORNL’s “black box” grid modeling method protects proprietary information about the inner workings of equipment while providing an accurate simulation of grid behavior at least 10 times faster than ...
