The U.S. Department of Energy’sOffice of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability (OE) is at the forefront infindingsolutionstotheseproblems.

MAKE A DIFFERENCEA modern, electric grid that can deliver electricity reliably, responsibly and efficiently is fundamental to building clean and efficient energy sources. You can make a difference by joining OE in transforming the grid, and in doing so: Transform the way we generate and use energy – build the next generation of “Smart Grid” technologies to

improve reliability and enable consumer choice; Develop energy storage technologies and other tools to integrate renewable energy into the grid; Work with state partners to meet new transmission needs; and Enhance the security of our energy infrastructure by addressing cyber security threats and speeding

recovery from natural disasters like hurricanes.

President Obama has said, “Our future is what we build it to be.” At OE, YOU can help us build a clean energy future.
