The Department of Energy’s Manufacturing Demonstration Facility (MDF) hosted the first-ever biennial Innovation Days at Oak Ridge National Laboratory with 120+ attendees from industry, academia, and several DOE clean energy programs (such as the Advanced Materials & Manufacturing Technologies Office, Wind Energy Technologies Office, Water Power Technologies Office, Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains, and Nuclear Energy).
While engaging on R&D challenges and opportunities in the clean energy space, attendees were able to participate in a Workforce Development Reception and student poster session with 40 students from academic institutions across the country who are conducting research at ORNL and MDF. The event showcased the successes, innovations, and collaborations of the MDF ecosystem and provided stakeholders with information on how to leverage these DOE assets to accelerate clean energy innovation and increase US manufacturing competitiveness.
