Innovating Energy Solutions

For the common good
Our cutting-edge research tackles the critical issues of providing dispatchable energy, including natural gas, geothermal, and nuclear, to meet growing power demands. We focus on action, not just theoretical discussion. We aim to drive technological and policy innovations, paving the way for a secure and energy-abundant future for the U.S. and its allies.

American Energy + AI Initiative

The Hamm Institute is leading the American Energy + AI Initiative, an ambitious, action-driven effort to align our nation’s energy strategy with the demands of artificial intelligence and advanced computing. This initiative brings together key stakeholders to accelerate the deployment of dispatchable energy, modernize infrastructure, and strengthen America’s competitive edge. From energy innovation to digital infrastructure, we’re ensuring the U.S. has the power to lead the AI era. 

Energy Security and Geopolitics

The Hamm Institute is at the forefront of energy geopolitics and international energy security initiatives. Our recent landmark agreement with SK E&S exemplifies our dedication to driving transformative change on a global scale. The Trilateral Energy Security Committee is working to find collaborative solutions for our allies in the Indo-Pacific 

Ready-for-Market Energy Solutions

Our focus is on pioneering advancements in carbon capture, geothermal energy, LNG, and infrastructure innovation among others. By prioritizing market-ready technologies, we ensure that investments are directed towards impactful and innovative solutions, driving real progress.

University Partnerships

The brightest minds
Collaborating with other universities ensures the best and the brightest minds have a seat at the table. We frequently convene with other institutes on projects to guarantee the best outcomes. We’re proud partners with the Ralph Lowe Energy Institute at TCU, the University of Wyoming School of Energy Resources, and several others.

Hamm Institute Fellows

Bringing the energy to light the path
We are proud to be home to three distinguished fellows, Dr. Amrita Sen, Dan Brouillette, and Steven Moore. These energy leaders advise the Hamm Institute on policy issues and frequently represent us on both national and international stages.
We also have a leading group of fellows within OSU. Our Fellows are educators and industry leaders whose diverse fields of study and ongoing research fuel innovation.
