Big energy storage science is brewing at GSL just one year after its groundbreaking.

Through an unprecedented collaboration with Idaho, Savannah River, and Argonne national laboratories, the Athena Project has built a network of nearly 150 scientists.

Researchers have begun a series of experiments that could bring about more energy for grid, thanks to a special delivery of 11 "high burnup" rods.

Aaron Luttman and Jonathan Forman represented PNNL at the high-profile "Risk and Reduction Science and Policy Forum" organized by Johns Hopkins University and supported by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency.

Researchers have developed the first coastal transport model for microplastics to understand how particles move in waterways and coastal currents.

The Low-cost Earth-abundant Na-ion Storage consortium is a major effort to create superior, no-compromise batteries that replace lithium with inexpensive, domestically abundant sodium and use few—if any—critical materials.

Scientists have tapped AI and powerful computing to speed up how quickly officials are able to learn important details about nuclear events.

Expanding the nation’s largest wind power plant time series database; helping grid planners navigate a resilient energy future with better data.

Two new publications provide emergency response agencies with critical insights into commercially available unmanned ground vehicles used for hazardous materials response.

PNNL STEM Ambassadors engage students about salmon migration, hydropower, cybersecurity, water quality, and more at the annual Salmon Summit.

Matt Fayette, a materials scientist, is testing a new method to extend battery life for grid storage by circulating the electrolyte.

Engineers at PNNL devised a system that allows radar antennae to maintain stable orientation while mounted on platforms in open water that pitch and roll unpredictably. They were recently invited to participate in DOE's I-Corps program.

Zhiqun (Daniel) Deng, Lab Fellow at PNNL, has been named a fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, an honor that recognizes outstanding engineering achievements.

PNNL’s science and technology helps hydropower operators detect, prevent and recover from cyberattacks while protecting a source of electricity that enhances grid reliability and resilience.

On June 4, PNNL welcomed the NGFP Class of 2025–2026, the 30th cohort of the program. PNNL has administered NGFP on behalf of NNSA since 2002.

Researchers at PNNL advised elementary and middle school student teams with their problem-solving research for the FIRST® LEGO® League robotics competitions.

Ampcera has an exclusive licensing agreement with PNNL to commercially develop and license a new battery material for applications such as vehicles and personal electronics.

PNNL’s experts in electrification advised ports how to modernize the use of energy resources at the Port of Anacortes. Now they will help do the same with several others.

The ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit brings together researchers, industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and investors to showcase the latest technologies shaping tomorrow’s energy landscape. This year, eight projects led by PNNL were featured.

Funded by DOE’s Office of Electricity, the GSL at PNNL has been recognized by BCI for accelerating the deployment of grid-ready storage solutions.
