Future holiday homecomings could include efficient heat pumps in cold climates and homes designed and built with the environment in mind.

From enhancing biofuel crops to setting up automated experiments and improving energy storage—interns at PNNL are making an impact.

Scientists are studying tiny subatomic particles that pass through humans and possess clues about the origins of the universe.

Researchers developed two solutions for air-conditioning—a novel, energy-efficient dehumidification system and a technology to detect refrigerant leaks. Both help increase energy-efficiency and reduce costs.

Here at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, much of our physics research focuses on fundamental scientific discovery and national security.
