ACEP partners with a diverse range of stakeholders to meet the energy research needs of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ and beyond. We offer technical assistance to communities, tribal organizations, utilities and non-profits; innovation partnerships for start-up companies; and industry-sponsored research to address specific technical, economic, social and scientific challenges.
Our wide range of local, state, national and international partners ensure our research is relevant, current and world-class.
Project highlights
Sep 01
This project was carried out to advance the Technology Readiness Level of the Water Horse hydrokinetic power harvester from 5 to 7.
Sep 01
This project aims to determine the benefits and issues associated with integration of wave and other renewable energy sources into small grid systems.
Sep 01
This project supports infrastructure upgrades to the Tanana River Test Site, the river energy test site of the Pacific Marine Energy Center.
Sep 01
This project aims to develop new technical pathways to design economically competitive hydrokinetic turbines for tidal and river currents.
Sep 20
This project aims to restore the high penetration wind-diesel system and to simultaneously develop a real-world wind-diesel microgrid test bed for research in Kokhanok, ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ.
Sep 20
This project aims to characterize how well bifacial solar photovoltaic (PV) panels perform at high latitudes.
Sep 20
This project tracks the performance and cost of solar photovoltaic technology in ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ.
Sep 20
This project aims to better characterize the performance of solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays in high latitude and cold climates.
Sep 21
The project intends to develop and validate models to assess the dynamic response of converter-dominated power systems across multiple spatio-temporal scales.
Sep 22
This project identified a Grid Bridging System (GBS) that allows costly diesel generators to turn off for periods of time and the entire system to run on renewables to reduce fuel consumption and environment impacts in ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñn communities.
Nov 11
This project addresses questions about land/sea interactions, biogeochemical and biological composition, seasonal dynamics and long-term changes within lagoons along the northern ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñn Arctic coast.
