Three recent doctoral graduates are beginning their research careers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory after completing the WSU-PNNL Distinguished Graduate Research Program this spring.

Grid Forward, an industry association dedicated to promoting and accelerating innovation in the regional electric system, honored PNNL's Carl Imhoff with the 2021 Grid Innovator Award.

Researchers delivering new solutions to speed development and deployment of advanced reactor concepts.

Risk analysis on the plutonium-fueled power system that supplies electricity to the Mars rover answered the “what if” nuclear safety questions for NASA.

Spent nuclear fuel is being recycled to make new fuel through rapid separation and tight control of uranium and plutonium.

On the looming 10th anniversary of the Fukushima disaster at the Daiichi Power Station in Japan, PNNL looks back at the science and solidarity it has shared with Fukushima and its nuclear cleanup effort.

Innovative technology combines continuous, remote, real-time testing and monitoring of byproduct gasses, paving the way for faster advanced reactor development and testing.

The Federal Laboratory Consortium for Technology Transfer has given three national awards to PNNL technology teams.

Magazine cover article—“Combating corrosion in the world’s nuclear reactors”—features PNNL research leaders Mark Nutt, Aaron Diaz, and Mychailo Toloczko.

Geophysical modeling and inversion software meets DOE and nuclear industry standards for use in decision-making for radiologically contaminated sites.

An international team used PNNL microscopy to answer questions about how uranium dioxide—used in nuclear power plants—might behave in long-term storage.

Nuclear Process Science Initiative researchers at PNNL gain insights into the formation and rupture of high-pressure gas bubbles in nuclear fuel.

PNNL and the 13 other national laboratories of the Grid Modernization Laboratory Consortium (GMLC) will be sharing their R&D work and technologies for grid modernization at DistribuTECH International in San Antonio Jan. 28-30.

PNNL will lead three new grid modernization projects funded by the Department of Energy. The projects focus on scalability and usability, networked microgrids, and machine learning for a more resilient, flexible and secure power grid.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are helping to lead transformation of the nation's century-old electric grid by developing new technologies to enhance its reliability and security.

Steve Short, a nuclear engineer at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, has been selected as a fellow of the National Society of Professional Engineers.
