Two new publications provide emergency response agencies with critical insights into commercially available unmanned ground vehicles used for hazardous materials response.
Jonathan Barr, senior systems engineer at PNNL, was recently invited to co-present on a panel at the Texas Department of Emergency Management Annual Conference.
Engineers at PNNL devised a system that allows radar antennae to maintain stable orientation while mounted on platforms in open water that pitch and roll unpredictably. They were recently invited to participate in DOE's I-Corps program.
The Wildfire Mitigation Plan Database was built to support electric utilities, state governments, policymakers, and regulators in understanding and improving wildfire risk and resilience strategies.
Researchers at PNNL advised elementary and middle school student teams with their problem-solving research for the FIRST® LEGO® League robotics competitions.
A new digital twin platform can help hydropower dam operators by providing accurate and predictive models of physical turbines that improve facilities and enhance reliability.
The Grid Storage Launchpad dedication event was attended by leaders in grid and transportation energy storage, battery innovation, and industry stakeholders working to transform America’s energy system.
Although climate change may bring increased precipitation to many parts of the United States, some areas may face drier conditions and lower streamflow, resulting in decreased hydropower generation.
Erich Hsieh, Deputy Assistant Secretary for OE’s Energy Storage Division, shared insights about the Grid Storage Launchpad and energy storage innovations .
The first-of-its kind vessel will allow researchers to transport large equipment and take measurements in near-silence with reduced impact on wildlife.
PNNL advisors joined a panel of Washington State emergency management personnel to discuss how partnerships with national laboratories are enabling science and technology solutions.
