PNNL's accomplishments in FY 2024 help address the remaining challenges the wind industry faces.

How to keep stray radiation from “shorting” superconducting qubits; a pair of studies shows where ionizing radiation is lurking and how to banish it.

With the launch of a large research barge, PNNL and collaborators took another significant step to improve offshore wind forecasting that will lower risk and cost associated with offshore wind energy development.

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.

The Health Physics Society has selected Jonathan Napier, a PNNL environmental health physicist, to serve as a delegate to the International Radiation Protection Association’s General Assembly.

Researchers are developing and deploying solutions to reduce risk and increase efficiency while keeping people and the environment safe.

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.

Scientists stop the motion of atoms to watch electrons move in liquid water.

Spatial proteomics enables researchers to link protein measurements to features in the image of a tissue sample, which are lost using standard approaches.

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.

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.

Bradley Crowell with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission sees advanced materials integrity, radiological measurement, and environmental capabilities on his first visit to PNNL.

Regional wind data helps utilities save money, plan for windy days.

Under Secretary for Science and Innovation at the Department of Energy Geri Richmond visited PNNL.

PNNL is making waves in pursuit of a blue economy. Researchers are advancing science and technology to expand—and protect—the gifts of the sea.

New research findings published in Science Advances (November 2022), help explain the progression of Alzheimer-related dementia in each patient. The findings outline a biological classification system that predicts disease severity.

PNNL chemist Ying Zhu was honored as one of the top 40 researchers under the age of 40 in analytical science by The Analytical Scientist.

Focused research studies of advanced algorithms and materials are setting the stage for the next generation of quantum computers.

A PNNL team is leading the design, fabrication, and regulatory testing, and delivery of new packaging units that will be used to ship radioactive materials safely and securely.

Recognizing how innovation and clean technologies at the very edge of the grid can work together to transition the electricity system, PNNL takes a multidisciplinary approach to advancing and integrating renewable energy solutions.
