A team of researchers recently coordinated a series of international workshops aimed at enhancing chemical research security and fostering collaboration among scientists and academic researchers from both countries.

PNNL biodefense experts seek to identify, understand and mitigate the risks of biological pathogens—whether naturally occurring or intentionally created—so steps can be taken to prepare and respond.

PNNL and collaborators developed new models—recently approved by the U.S. Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC)—to help utilities understand how new grid-forming inverter technology will enhance grid stability.

Research at PNNL and the University of Texas at El Paso are addressing computational challenges of thinking beyond the list and developing bioagent-agnostic signatures to assess threats.

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.

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 researchers helped design and conduct an international exercise hosted by the Ministry of Finance of Finland to help improve financial sector resilience.

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.

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

At the Nonproliferation, Counterproliferation, and Disarmament Science Gordon Research Conference, researchers from PNNL shared research and scientific approaches for countering diverse threats.

Karen Taylor was an invited speaker at the Closing the Knowledge Gaps event and spoke during a panel, titled Bioeconomy Workforce Demands.

A new, state-of-the-art training facility in Larnaca, Cyprus provides unique training opportunities for border security officials from partner nations.

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.

PNNL Hydrogen Safety Panel supports a fundamental hydrogen safety credential deployed through the Center for Hydrogen Safety.

Human-machine teaming may sound like something from the distant future. In “Human-Machine Teaming: A Vision of Future Law Enforcement” in Domestic Preparedness, Corey Fallon, Kris Cook, and Grant Tietje of PNNL examine this topic.

When training for chemical and biological threats, in-person exercises and drills can be very limited due to the hazardous nature of the agent.

PNNL licensed two technologies to generate hydrogen. One, a reactor design, generates hydrogen from natural gas. The second innovation uses a 3D printing method to economically manufacture the generator.

Electrical engineer Tom McDermott has been named the winner of a power distribution engineering award.

In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, PNNL pivoted to online learning approaches to conduct critical national security training across the globe.

Study says planners need to account for climate impacts on renewable energy during capacity development planning to fully understand investment implications to the power sector.
