A team from PNNL contributed several articles to the Domestic Preparedness Journal showcasing recent efforts to explore the emergency management and artificial intelligence research and development landscape.
PNNL was well represented at the NAWEA/WindTech 2024 Conference with 13 PNNL experts at the conference sponsored by the North American Wind Energy Academy.
PNNL researchers are exploring the kinds of flicker waveforms that the eye and brain can detect, seeking to understand the different visual and non-visual effects that result.
At the National Homeland Security Conference, researchers shared how partnerships and emerging technologies like artificial intelligence can play a key role in emergency management preparedness and response.
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.
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.
PNNL advisors joined a panel of Washington State emergency management personnel to discuss how partnerships with national laboratories are enabling science and technology solutions.
Tennessee State University received Department of Energy funding to establish an academy focused on preparing students and professionals to work in an emerging field: clean energy systems. PNNL is helping with that effort and others.
GUV can reduce transmission of airborne disease while reducing energy use and carbon emissions. But fulfilling that promise depends on having accurate and verifiable performance data.
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.
Researchers from PNNL have been assessing installation and use of electric heat pumps in an Alaskan community that relies on fuel oil for heat. The resulting information could advance electrification in cold rural areas across the nation.
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 helps deliver efficiency-related rules and requirements that steadily improve performance of America’s buildings, saving energy and costs and reducing carbon emissions.
At the GovAI Summit 2023, Ryan Eddy joined the Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate on a panel highlighting artificial intelligence impacts and opportunities in the field of emergency management.
A team of researchers received an award for their contributions to improving the operational readiness and safety posture of the firefighter community by conducting a rigorous evaluation of commercially available equipment.
Mandy Mahoney, director of the DOE Building Technologies Office, visited PNNL in late November. One key agenda item involved meeting with staff for a discussion of effective equity and justice integration in buildings-related research.
