PNNL researchers Daniel Deng and Yehia Ibrahim join the 2025 class of National Academy of Inventors Fellows.

ThermalTracker-3D can help streamline permitting, reduce costs, and shorten development time of energy projects.

PNNL teamed up with multiple agencies to install a battery energy storage system at a South Dakota Air Force base.

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.

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.

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 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.

This is the first time a flow battery with 24-hour discharge capacity will be deployed and tested in a field environment.

Battery energy storage systems are being proposed in municipalities across the U.S. PNNL researchers can help community planners guide safe siting and operations.

For her most recent efforts, Bruckner-Lea, a senior technical advisor at PNNL, received the Secretary’s Appreciation Award from the U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm in July.

PNNL receives a 2023 Federal Laboratory Consortium Far West Regional Award for a technological innovation that could help make the U.S. a producer of critical minerals used in electronics and energy production.

Daniel Deng, mechanical engineer and Laboratory Fellow at PNNL, has been named 2022 PNNL Inventor of the Year.

Findings in a new PNNL report show long-duration energy storage will be a necessity in decarbonizing the grid and recommends the planning and procurement process to identify those needs start immediately.

PNNL’s Katie Arkema was selected to be on NASEM committee focused on public health and conservation.

For a second year in a row, doctoral intern Jack Watson was awarded the Student Merit Award by the Society for Risk Analysis and the Resilience Analysis Specialty group.

Five staff members from PNNL received awards from the Department of Energy’s Federal Energy Management Program for contributions to projects for the U.S. Army.

A new version of the Department of Energy’s Technical Resilience Navigator allows users to prioritize resilience solutions based on both risk reduction and emissions impact.

Researchers studied water cycling to assess the achievability of net-zero water usage at military installations in the Pacific Islands.

Yunyang Ye, a research engineer at PNNL, receives ASHRAE Homer Addams Award.
