Andrew White goes back to his alma mater, Georgia Tech, as young alumni keynote speaker for the Sustainability Showcase, part of the university’s larger Sustainable Development Goals Action & Awareness Week.
At the second Grid Resilience to Extreme Events Summit, a diverse range of experts gathered to tackle the biggest challenges in building a resilient grid.
Mahon joined the advisory committee of the Pacific Offshore Wind Consortium and the external advisory panel for the Ocean and Resources Engineering department at the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa.
In a study off the West Coast, researchers find that although seabirds generally soar underneath the height of possible future wind turbine blades, more work is being done to fully understand seabird flight behavior.
PNNL computing experts Robert Rallo and Court Corley contribute their knowledge to a recent DOE report on applications of AI to energy, materials, and the power grid.
IEEE Power and Energy Society Task Force Focused on Equity and Energy Justice, led by PNNL staff member Bethel Tarekegne, guides important changes in energy policy and regulation.
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.
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?
There are many ways that researchers at PNNL bring unique perspectives to the field of distributed wind. One is the fact that PNNL's distributed wind projects are all led by women.
PNNL’s Chris Chini has been named a guest editor of Environmental Research: Infrastructure and Sustainability’s special issue examining energy infrastructure vulnerabilities from physical and natural threats.
The nation is closer to its offshore wind energy goals than ever before, but better wind forecasting is still needed. To address this challenge, PNNL and collaborators are charting a new course with help from novel technology.
PNNL had a significant presence at October’s North American Wind Energy Academy/WindTech 2023 Conference in Denver, Colorado. Thirteen PNNL wind experts participated in various capacities.
Fiscal year 2023 offered PNNL wind researchers a wealth of opportunity to address wind implementation challenges and expand its support of various federal and state agency wind energy goals.
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.
Floating offshore wind farms could potentially triple the Pacific Northwest's wind power capacity while offsetting billions of dollars in costs for utilities, ratepayers, insurance companies, and others.
