PNNL’s patented Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion (ShAPE™) technique is an advanced manufacturing technology that enables better-performing materials and components while offering opportunities to reduce costs and energy consumption.

Researchers seek to bring down costs, address potential environmental risks and maximize the benefits of harnessing wind energy above the deep waters of the Pacific.

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

PNNL is making waves in pursuit of a blue economy. Researchers are advancing science and technology to expand—and protect—the gifts of the sea.

PNNL’s contributions over the last year span scientific discovery, sustainable energy and national security.

From landfills to fill-ups: novel catalysts may make plastic upcycling cleaner and more cost-effective.

Recognizing how innovation and clean technologies at the very edge of the grid can work together to transition the electricity system, PNNL takes a multidisciplinary approach to advancing and integrating renewable energy solutions.

Can food waste help fuel the future? Researchers are working toward clean, cost-effective alternatives to today’s fossil fuels.

PNNL scientists are learning how to harness wind to secure a brighter, cleaner energy future.

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