Scott Whalen, a chief scientist in the Applied Materials and Manufacturing group at PNNL, has been named 2023 PNNL Inventor of the Year

PNNL electrical engineer Samrat Acharya led a team that earned the 2024 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Conference Best Paper Award.

A new iron-based aqueous flow battery shows promise for grid energy storage applications.

In 2006, battery research was practically non-existent at PNNL. Today, the lab is lauded for its battery research. How did PNNL go from a new player to a leader in state-of-the-art storage for EVs and the grid?

Models have identified a new source of anthropogenic emissions driving the observed weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation.

Results of the PR100 study outline near- and short-term strategies for Puerto Rico to achieve a renewable power grid by 2050.

A newly developed, highly conductive copper wire could find applications in the electric grid, as well as in homes and businesses. The finding defies what's been thought about how metals conduct electricity.

A seemingly simple shift in lithium-ion battery manufacturing could pay big dividends, improving electric vehicles’ ability to store more energy per charge and to withstand more charging cycles.

Understanding the risk of compound energy droughts—times when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind doesn’t blow—will help grid planners understand where energy storage is needed most.

This is the first time a flow battery with 24-hour discharge capacity will be deployed and tested in a field environment.

Battery energy storage systems are being proposed in municipalities across the U.S. PNNL researchers can help community planners guide safe siting and operations.

Less pollution and the odd shapes of snow grains as they pack together should help cut the decline of snowpack later this century.

In a new paper, researchers point to three major efforts where the biggest climate mitigation gains stand to be realized: ramping up carbon dioxide removal, reigning in non-carbon dioxide emissions and halting deforestation.

PNNL celebrates World Energy Storage Day (September 22) by introducing you to some of our best and brightest in this area.

A new discovery by PNNL researchers has illuminated a previously unknown key mechanism that could inform the development of new, more effective catalysts for abating NOx emissions from combustion-engines burning diesel or low carbon fuel.

PNNL’s Grid Storage Launchpad delivers tomorrow’s energy storage solutions today.

The Department of Energy’s Vehicle Technologies Office recently issued two awards to researchers at PNNL for their contributions to areas that are crucial for the expansion of electric vehicles.

PNNL energy storage experts express need for continued investment in developing and deploying long-duration energy storage.

Two researchers at PNNL have been named fellows of the American Chemical Society: Karthikeyan Ramasamy and Yuyan Shao.

A new flow battery design achieves long life and capacity for grid energy storage from renewable fuels.
