About NETL
Organization
NETL has sites in Morgantown, West Virginia; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Albany, Oregon; and Fairbanks, Alaska. In total, these sites include 81 buildings and 14 major research facilities on nearly 200 acres. More than 1,100 employees work at NETL’s five sites; roughly half are Federal employees and half are site support contractors.
NETL is organized into seven strategic units:
|
|
Strategic Center for Natural Gas and Oil (SCNGO) integrates all elements of DOE’s natural gas and oil research. SCNGO is charged with implementing science and technology development to resolve the environmental, supply, and reliability constraints of producing and using oil and gas resources – resources that account for more than 60 percent of the energy consumed in the United States. With core competencies and expertise in all aspects of natural gas and oil, SNGCO investigates and manages research and development leading to improved natural gas and oil production and use. SCNGO invests in projects that promise tangible benefits to the American people, including a cleaner environment and increased domestic natural gas and oil production.

Strategic Center for Coal (SCC) works to ensure national energy security and economic prosperity through production of clean, affordable electricity and fuels, including hydrogen, from coal, the Nation’s most abundant energy resource. SCC is charged with implementing research, development, and demonstration to resolve the environmental, supply, and reliability constraints of producing and using coal resources. Environmentally responsible coal production technologies will allow the United States to meet growing electricity demand and to lay the foundation for a sustainable hydrogen economy.

Office of Systems, Analyses and Planning (OSAP) conducts studies of complex, large systems, such as industrial or ecological processes, and the interactions amongst those systems, including social, economic, political, regulatory, technological, design, and management institutions, each of which are systems in their own right. The complex nature of these subjects requires an interdisciplinary approach. System studies provide input to decisions on issues such as national plans and programs, resource use and environmental and energy security policies, research and development in technology, and deployment of energy technology. System studies are also used to support planning exercises at various organizational levels. Systems analysis focuses on production and processing of fossil fuels and energy and fuel systems synthesis and design. Benefits analysis performs prospective and retrospective analysis of benefits stemming from program investments in fossil fuel-based technologies. Situational analysis collects data and assesses current and long-term trends within the energy industry that may impact energy production and use. OSAP organization chart [PDF-14KB]
The Project Management Center (PMC) harnesses expertise and talent for non-fossil energy research, development, and demonstration projects, including those with other Federal organizations such as the Office of Energy Assurance, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. PMC performs overall management and implementation of these customers’ advanced initiatives, providing technical expertise, analytical tools, and a full suite of implementation skills.

Office of Research and Development (ORD) performs
basic and applied research and development in fossil energy and environmental
science. Building on historic Laboratory strengths and competencies, ORD
focuses on four research topics recognized as important issues for the
21st century:
- Energy system dynamics, focusing on natural gas technology development,
including higher efficiencies and lower costs in the use of advanced
gas turbines and fuel cells.
- Geological and environmental systems, focusing on the minimization
and abatement of environmental problems associated with the development
and use of fossil fuels. Research topics include geological sequestration
of carbon dioxide, oil and gas exploration and production, air pollution/particulate
matter issues, and removal of toxins from emissions from coal utilization
systems.
- Computational and basic sciences develops tools that enable more rapid
and efficient scale-up of new sub-systems, devices and components, to
enable more cost effective demonstration of new technologies.
- Materials Science specializes in life cycle research of most metals,
alloys, and ceramics; and the recycling and remediation of waste streams
associated with these processes.

The Office of Crosscutting Functions (OCF) plans, directs, and coordinates policy, administrative, and site support contract management activities that crosscut Laboratory activities. The Office provides policy direction for the Federal Project Management function, performance measurement, security services, and site support contract management. Particular functional and technical analysts participate individually or with teams to ensure timely information exchange, coordinate responses to action items affecting FE and DOE.
