PNNL’s Reid Hart and Bing Liu have earned individual Champions of Energy Efficiency in Buildings awards from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy.
PNNL worked with the Department of Energy on the Commercial Packaged Boiler rule, which will help reduce energy use, enhance the environment, and save dollars.
Plastic upcycling efficiently converts plastics to valuable commodity chemicals while using less of the precious metal ruthenium. The method could recycle waste plastic pollution into useful products, helping keep it out of landfills.
The Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm made her first in-person visit to PNNL, a leading center for scientific discovery and technical innovation in sustainable energy.
A process developed at PNNL that converts biomass and waste into a chemical intermediate or into gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel is available for commercial licensing.
A paper from PNNL and Southern California Edison describing new methodologies for assessing electric vehicle impacts to the grid was selected as a best paper by IEEE.
