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

Glenn Fugate was selected to serve on the American Chemical Society's Science Committee.

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.

Brian Milbrath, a physicist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was selected as a new Task Leader for the PrepCom’s Working Group B.

New PNNL research makes it easier to differentiate between chemical and nuclear explosions.

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

The Washington State Academy of Sciences added six people from PNNL to its 2022 class of inductees.

Michael Brambley, a mechanical engineer at PNNL, receives ASHRAE Exceptional Service Award.

Srinivas Katipamula, a staff scientist at PNNL, has been honored with an ASHRAE Exceptional Service Award.

COVID-19 changed when and where we use electricity. Researchers showed that commonly available total demand data masked the actual changes.

With an eye on renewable, accessible, and resilient power, PNNL researchers show hyper-local microgrids are a viable option, if designed with the right mix of sources.

Rey Suarez is a nuclear nonproliferation researcher who is working on equipment that can detect radionuclides emitted from a nuclear explosion as part of treaty monitoring.

A paper by PNNL scientists on nuclear explosion monitoring technology is among top articles in nuclear instruments journal to draw most social media “buzz.”

Researchers at PNNL examined heat pump water heater (HPWH) operation in Pacific Northwest residences, gaining insights into HPWH electricity use patterns. Part of the study captured trends during a COVID-19 stay-at-home order.

With a focus on prevention, PNNL researchers are working to predict droughts, enhance grid resilience, and manage forests to reduce wildfire.

Michael Tillou, a senior buildings research engineer at PNNL, has been honored with an ASHRAE Distinguished Service Award.

PNNL researchers simulated residential battery use and found in-home energy storage can benefit both the power grid and homeowners.

PNNL has published a report that sets the foundation for modeling gaps and technical challenges in optimizing hydropower operations for both energy production and water management.

PNNL researchers say that offshore wind energy can add value to the electric grid, beyond just the power it can produce, if locations and strategies are optimized.

PNNL’s longstanding grid and buildings capabilities are driving two projects that test transactive energy concepts on a grand scale and lay the groundwork for a more efficient U.S. energy system.
