Safe, Clean, Sustainable Energy
Just south of Pittsburgh, Pa., within 60 miles of the vibrant city’s gleaming downtown, are two of the three research laboratories that form the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL). Their proximity to Pittsburgh and to each other is no coincidence. Pennsylvania, the site of the first NETL lab, gave birth to America’s energy industry, while the coalfields of West Virginia, the site of the second lab, fueled the nation’s industrial expansion. The early research centers that grew into NETL were formed here—in America’s energy heart—to make energy production and consumption as safe, clean, and sustainable as possible. |
