PNNL scientists have created an improved metal-organic framework (MOF) for adsorption cooling, that performs at least 40 percent better than its predecessors.
Their consistency and predictability makes tidal energy attractive, not only as a source of electricity but, potentially, as a mechanism to provide reliability and resilience to regional or local power grids.
Research buoys managed by PNNL underwent a $1.3-million upgrade that included more powerful lidar that reaches heights of today’s taller wind turbines.
PNNL is managing the Data Archive and Portal, which provides the wind research community with secure, timely, easy, and open access to all data brought in from research under DOE’s Atmosphere to Electrons program.
PNNL researchers and professional staff led discussions ranging from biothreats and climate change to science careers at the 2020 annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, held this year in Seattle.
First-of-its-kind network analysis on a supercomputer can speed real-time applications for cybersecurity, transportation, and infectious disease tracking
PNNL's Sensor Fish were deployed at Ice Harbor Dam to collect data from a new turbine. The data indicates the design changes are making travel through the dam less arduous for fish.
In a special edition of the Journal of Information Warfare, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers explore the revolution of technologies defending the nation’s critical infrastructure.
PNNL will provide technical support to finalists in the Incubate stage and to Grand Prize Winners following the Pitch contest stage of the Fish Protection Prize competition, which is now accepting submissions.
Researchers have identified two processes responsible for fracturing rock at lower pressures for geothermal energy production using PNNL’s fracturing fluid, StimuFrac™.
At a conference featuring the most advanced computing hardware and software, ML in its various guises was on full display and highlighted by Nathan Baker’s featured invited presentation.
Pumped-storage hydropower offers the most cost-effective storage option for shifting large volumes of energy. A PNNL-led team wrote a report comparing cost and performance factors for 10 storage technologies.
Scientists at PNNL are bringing artificial intelligence into the quest to see whether computers can help humans sift through a sea of experimental data.
In today’s digital age, the rabbit hole of connected information can be not only a time sink, but downright overwhelming. Even for high-performance computers.
Twenty-four analysts from U.S. intelligence organizations met in August for a machine learning activity with PNNL researchers Nicole Nichols, Jeremiah Rounds, Lawrence Phillips, and Brian Kritzstein.
Trouble on the electric grid might start with something relatively small: a downed power line, or a lightning strike at a substation. What happens next?
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is leading efforts to address next-generation computing’s critical role in protecting the nation from cybersecurity threats.
