About this award
This federal contract award was granted to the University System of New Hampshire (USNH), through its University of New Hampshire (UNH) division, by a civilian federal agency. The $805,131.00 grant is for research aimed at understanding the impact of geomagnetic induced currents (GICs) on critical infrastructure like power grids, railways, and pipelines during magnetic storms. The research will utilize sophisticated magnetosphere, ionosphere, and current modeling to examine GIC variations under different geomagnetic conditions, including extreme space weather events. This grant does not have a set-aside designation. USNH, as a non-profit 1862 land-grant university, has an extensive track record of providing specialized scientific research and technical assistance to federal agencies across domains like aerospace, environmental science, and ocean mapping. The grant work will contribute to the agency's efforts to prepare for and mitigate the hazardous effects of geomagnetic disturbances on national infrastructure.
Description
Objectives magnetic storms can cause critical hazardous for our technologies with imposing geomagnetic induced current (GIC) through our infrastructure like power grids, railways, and pipelines. In this project, we aim to address the following issues
