PNNL researchers are working to provide the technical assistance and expertise needed for communities to shape their clean energy future.

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

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.

PNNL’s suite of Solid Phase Processing tools like Cold Spray is helping to strengthen hydroelectric dam materials such as turbines.

PNNL commemorates 9/11 and reflects on the 20 years of science and technology produced since to protect against threats and make America safer.

PNNL scientists developed a new, tiny battery and tag to track younger, smaller species, to evaluate behavior and estimate survival during downstream migration.

PNNL’s infrared pulsed heating technique reveals supercooled water’s weird behavior; opens door to other fluid studies at new Energy Sciences Center.

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

PNNL researchers are using explainable artificial intelligence to develop new ways to understand and interpret data for national security.

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.

Explainable artificial intelligence—understanding and explaining the reasoning behind AI decisions—is a necessity for national security.

Explainable AI helps scientists understand and untangle the threads of information that the system uses to make choices or recommendations.

PNNL researchers are examining the volatile radioisotope iodine as it evolves in the atmosphere and as it lands on a filtering surface.

Researchers at PNNL have developed a bacteria testing system called OmniScreen that combines biological and synthetic chemistry with machine learning to hunt down pathogens before they strike.

A zoonotic coronavirus known as SADS-CoV that has killed many pigs has the ability to infect human cells, surprising scientists.

As author of her first publication, PNNL bioinformaticist Isabelle O’Bryon developed the first forensic proteomics method to more quickly detect ricin, a toxin often crudely made in home laboratories that can kill in trace amounts.

A PNNL developed e-training helps chemists internalize the Global Chemical Code of Ethics' ideals and practice speaking up when others don't.

PNNL researchers and professional staff led discussions ranging from biothreats and climate change to science careers at the 2020 annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, held this year in Seattle.

A new book by PNNL biochemist Erick Merkley details forensic proteomics, a technique that directly analyzes proteins in unknown samples, in pursuit of making proteomics a widespread forensic method when DNA is missing or ambiguous.

The world’s largest scientific society honored Sue B. Clark, a PNNL and WSU chemist, for contributions toward resolving our legacy of radioactive waste, advancing nuclear safeguards, and developing landmark nuclear research capabilities.
