Three unused, 48,000-pound stainless steel canisters arrived at PNNL, bringing the chance to deepen research in spent nuclear fuel storage and transportation.

PNNL has published a cybersecurity guidance report for marine renewable energy devices to prepare the blue economy for harnessing ocean power from waves, tides, and currents.

Coastal Sciences Division group leader, Meg Pinza, helped build Triton into a thought leader in the field of marine energy environmental monitoring.

Joint appointee and chief scientist for the Solid Phase Processing Science Initiative at PNNL Suveen Mathaudhu has been awarded a Brimacombe Medal by The Minerals & Materials Society.

The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded funding to PNNL for the design and construction of a hybrid research vessel and an underwater testbed to be located at PNNL-Sequim.

The Marine and Coastal Research Laboratory (MCRL), part of PNNL, in Sequim, Washington, is the U.S. Department of Energy’s only marine research facility. It has a rich history and expanding research scope.

A special issue of the Marine Technology Society Journal, titled “Utilizing Offshore Resources for Renewable Energy Development,” focuses on research and development efforts including those at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL).

Materials scientists at PNNL are demonstrating materials with improved properties using solid phase processing.

The Ocean Observing Prize is a competitive incentive program to help inventors advance new concepts for marine energy technologies that can power ocean observing systems, particularly those that inform us about hurricane formation.

Researchers at PNNL have increased the conductivity of copper wire by about five percent via a process called Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion. General Motors tested the wire for application in vehicle motor components.

Five PNNL technologies were recently awarded six R&D 100 honors. The R&D 100 Awards, now in its 58th year, recognize pioneers in science and technology from industry, the federal government, and academia.

Twelve energy-related technologies developed at PNNL have been selected for additional technology maturation funding to help move them from the laboratory and field tests to the marketplace.

PNNL’s Zhaoqing Yang recently served as guest editor for the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering’s issue on marine energy.

Darrell Herling and two national laboratory collaborators were recently recognized by DOE for their leadership in the Powertrain Materials Core Program.

On World Oceans Day, an international team of marine scientists reports that the potential impact of marine renewable energy to marine life is likely small or undetectable, though some uncertainty remains.

Two forms of magnesium material were processed into tubing using PNNL’s Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion™ technology. Both materials were found to have quite similar and improved properties—even though they began vastly different.

Postdoc Bharat Gwalani’s pioneering spirit crosses several scientific disciplines and he climbs mountains too

Superman may be known as the "Man of Steel," but scientific superheroes at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are developing a novel approach for manufacturing metals with superior strength.

Two Chief Engineers at PNNL given Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers

A PNNL study that evaluated the use of friction stir technology on stainless steel has shown that the steel resists erosion more than three times that of its unprocessed counterpart.
