EGRASS helps prepare and fortify critical structures to protect against the worst consequences of new hurricanes.

Focused research studies of advanced algorithms and materials are setting the stage for the next generation of quantum computers.

COVID-19 changed when and where we use electricity. Researchers showed that commonly available total demand data masked the actual changes.

COVID-19 had multiple impacts on the electric sector and the nature of those impacts varied on the scale analyzed.

Reimagining the United States power grid could save consumers $50 billion a year.

Artificial intelligence-based decision tool enables grid operators to respond more quickly and effectively to grid emergencies.

Brent VanDevender is an experimental nuclear physicist and the program manager for nuclear physics research at PNNL.

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.

PNNL has released the first version of ExaGO, an open-source grid modeling software that can take advantage of emerging heterogeneous computing architecture to help grid operators plan ahead for extreme events.

After years of planning, building, and calibration, researchers at the Belle II accelerator experiment in Japan have published their first physics paper.

A trio of researchers from PNNL were recognized for their efforts to develop and administer DOE’s Grid Optimization Competition.

B3? E4? Remember the board game Battleship? One player suggests a set of coordinates to another, hoping to find the elusive location of an unseen vessel.That is a good place to start in assessing the search for dark matter.

While some of us may periodically ponder the universe, most of us don't dedicate our lives to studying its mysteries, including its birth, evolution and fate.

DOE gives go ahead for SuperCDMS — one of the world's most sensitive dark matter experiments.

Scientists detect phenomenon in lab that occurs during neutron star formation and supernovae explosions.

To study some of the tiniest particles in the universe, an international band of physicists is building a massive instrument to look for signs of particles predicted to be fundamental to the workings of the universe.

The search for dark matter called spin-dependent WIMPS is on — in an underground lab in Canada

Here at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, much of our physics research focuses on fundamental scientific discovery and national security.
