PNNL researchers developed a new model to help power system operators and planners better evaluate how grid-forming, inverter-based resources could affect the system stability.
As COVID-19 was limiting in-person contact, halting travel, and creating additional barriers, researchers at PNNL were working to find solutions on how they could still get work done while establishing new safety protocols.
Network Collapse, a virtual reality science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) app developed by PNNL researchers, has won a Gold Award from the 2019 International Serious Play Award.
PNNL will lead two new projects to advance resilient distribution systems and partner on three additional demonstrations aimed at validating new approaches and technologies to make the aging grid more resilient and secure.
