Machine learning techniques are accelerating the development of stronger alloys for power plants, which will yield efficiency, cost, and decarbonization benefits.
PNNL has released the first version of ExaGO, an open-source grid modeling software that can take advantage of emerging heterogeneous computing architecture to help grid operators plan ahead for extreme events.
Study says planners need to account for climate impacts on renewable energy during capacity development planning to fully understand investment implications to the power sector.
For the second straight year, PNNL researchers are featured in a special edition of the Journal of Information Warfare. This issue explores the topic of macro cyber resiliency.
One year ago, Verizon announced a partnership that made PNNL the U.S. Department of Energy’s first national laboratory with Verizon 5G ultra-wideband wireless technology.
Sentry-SECURE is a new communication and response platform developed by PNNL, VPI, and Microsoft Azure that rapidly and securely transfers radiological alarm data through the cloud.
PNNL teamed with academia and industry to develop a novel zero-emission methane pyrolysis process that produces both hydrogen and high-value carbon solids suitable for an array of manufacturing applications.
PNNL formulated a new type of dual-ion cell chemistry that uses a zinc anode and a natural graphite cathode in an aqueous—or “water-in-bisalt”—electrolyte.
Through two U.S. Department of Energy funding calls awarded in 2020, PNNL is partnering with industry and academia to advance battery materials and processes.
A research team from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory developed an apparatus that evaluates the performance of high-temperature fluids in hydraulic fracturing for enhanced geothermal systems.
PNNL researchers say that offshore wind energy can add value to the electric grid, beyond just the power it can produce, if locations and strategies are optimized.
PNNL’s longstanding grid and buildings capabilities are driving two projects that test transactive energy concepts on a grand scale and lay the groundwork for a more efficient U.S. energy system.
PNNL is one of the collaborating partners on a new grid-scale solar and energy storage installation near the PNNL campus in a project led by Energy Northwest.
