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.

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.

Reaching net-zero carbon emissions goals requires finding transformative paths to manage carbon in difficult-to-electrify economic sectors.

If you’re not sure whether rooftop solar panels and battery energy storage systems are right for you, start with this new guide from PNNL researchers.

Catalysts that efficiently transfer hydrogen for storage in organic hydrogen carriers are key for more sustainable generation and use of hydrogen. New research identifies activity descriptors that can accelerate novel catalyst development.

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 98th ACS Colloid and Surface Science Symposium will be co-organized by Shuai Zhang and Jim De Yoreo.

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.

Understanding the risk of compound energy droughts—times when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind doesn’t blow—will help grid planners understand where energy storage is needed most.

PNNL is one of the founding partners of the Trillion Parameter Consortium, which was formed to create reliable generative AI models.

1-propanol converts from a monomer into a trimer at aluminum sites within zeolite pores.

Robert Rallo from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory will direct a machine learning thrust for a new Department of Energy-funded project led by SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.

Floating offshore wind farms could potentially triple the Pacific Northwest's wind power capacity while offsetting billions of dollars in costs for utilities, ratepayers, insurance companies, and others.

Two renewable energy approaches—enhanced geothermal systems and floating offshore wind energy—get new focus as Energy Earthshot™ Research Centers at PNNL.

PNNL will lead support to one of six community teams chosen today by the U.S. Department of Energy to receive a total of up to $25 million.

Studying single crystal reactions provides molecular-level insight into catalytic processes.

PNNL led one of five Pathway Summer School programs nationwide, with a specific focus on engaging students from Native American or Indigenous backgrounds.

Wendy Shaw is a new Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, honored for her leadership role and impacts on the chemical sciences.

Six PNNL projects were selected as part of the Department of Energy’s Funding for Accelerated, Inclusive Research.
