ExaGO, a power grid simulation and optimization platform developed at PNNL is the first of its kind to run on Frontier.

Zhenyu (Henry) Huang acts as guest editor in an upcoming special issue on “Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation in Power and Energy Systems." The special edition is published by Elsevier.

Fish biologist Brenda Pracheil has been named chair of the Low Impact Hydropower Institute focused on reduction of impacts of hydropower dams on the environment.

Despite severe drought, a new report shows that hydropower remains a strong and steadfast contributor of renewable energy in the West.

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

New research simulates power demand, supply, and cost in a hotter, drier climate.

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

Recognizing how innovation and clean technologies at the very edge of the grid can work together to transition the electricity system, PNNL takes a multidisciplinary approach to advancing and integrating renewable energy solutions.

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

A new PNNL study quantifies hydropower's contribution to grid stability. When other power sources go out, hydropower can ramp up, recoup shortfalls, and stabilize the grid nearly instantaneously.

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

With an eye on renewable, accessible, and resilient power, PNNL researchers show hyper-local microgrids are a viable option, if designed with the right mix of sources.

Electrical engineer Aditya Ashok and cybersecurity researcher Thomas Edgar win best paper award for their work to create a new high-fidelity dataset that will help advance cybersecurity solutions for critical infrastructure protection.

Free, publicly available tool to help estimate value of pumped storage hydropower project services.

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

With a focus on prevention, PNNL researchers are working to predict droughts, enhance grid resilience, and manage forests to reduce wildfire.

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.

Alison Colotelo, senior research scientist and project manager, has been selected for the Hydropower Foundation advisory board.

PNNL is developing the Digital Twins for Hydropower framework to help the industry to affordably modernize the aging hydropower fleet.

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.
