PNNL is at the midpoint of a study focused on the installation of electric heat pump water heaters in New Orleans homes. The efficient water heaters offer a unique capability that could help speed the transition from fossil fuels.
A team of researchers at PNNL has created a publicly available Hydropower eLibrary to improve access to information that could help streamline the FERC environmental review and licensing process.
Climate change and socioeconomic pressures are transforming passenger and freight transportation in the Arctic, producing effects that have yet to be fully understood.
Earth Scientist Mingxuan Wu was recognized with an Outstanding Contribution Award for his work on nitrate aerosol modeling in the Energy Exascale Earth System Model.
Two renewable energy approaches—enhanced geothermal systems and floating offshore wind energy—get new focus as Energy Earthshot™ Research Centers at PNNL.
In a new paper, researchers point to three major efforts where the biggest climate mitigation gains stand to be realized: ramping up carbon dioxide removal, reigning in non-carbon dioxide emissions and halting deforestation.
Rechargeable battery performance could be improved by a new understanding of how batteries work at the molecular level. Researchers at PNNL upend what's known about how rechargeable batteries function.
Testing the assumption that different future socio-economic development patterns, which result in different land-use changes, can be paired with different future climate outcomes for risk assessments in a multi-model framework.
A poem inspired by radioactive tank waste—“Can a Scientist Dream it Alone?”—was awarded first place in the Department of Energy’s Poetry of Science Art Contest.
PNNL is honoring its postdoctoral researchers as part of the fourteenth annual National Postdoc Appreciation Week with seven profiles of postdocs from around the Laboratory.
A new discovery by PNNL researchers has illuminated a previously unknown key mechanism that could inform the development of new, more effective catalysts for abating NOx emissions from combustion-engines burning diesel or low carbon fuel.
PNNL Chief Diversity Officer and Director for STEM Education and PNNL Battery Materials and System group leader will receive Clean Energy Education and Empowerment (C3E) awards at the 2023 C3E Women in Clean Energy Symposium.
