PNNL’s Steven Spurgeon, a materials scientist, was recently elected leader of the Microscopy Society of America (MSA) aberration-corrected microscopy focused interest group.

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.

Water and energy researchers are invited to join a new task force as a way to collaborate broadly on the intersection of the two topics. The task force is part of IEEE's Power and Energy Society and was launched by PNNL and UU researchers.

Ken Geelhood is a nuclear engineer who is studying how the challenging conditions of a nuclear reactor affect the reliability of fuel.

A new report outlines future research paths that are needed for airlines to reduce carbon emissions and notes that the only way to achieve emission reduction goals is with Sustainable Aviation Fuels.

Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are closer to understanding how iron may pave the way for sequestration of technetium-99 contaminants in the subsurface.

PNNL data scientists Ján Drgoňa and Draguna Vrabie are working to reduce deployment costs of advanced energy control systems for buildings.

Researchers developed a new tool that combines artificial intelligence and microscopy data to rapidly test new materials for fusion reactor use.

PNNL bioenergy expert Dan Gaspar has been selected to assume leadership of DOE’s Co-Optimization of Fuels and Engines initiative.
