Pacific Northwest marsh carbon stocks are twice the global average. Long-term sea-level rise impacts will likely decrease ecosystem carbon stocks.

PNNL coastal ecologist Heida Diefenderfer was a featured speaker in February at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s Government-University-Industry Research Roundtable on policy and global affairs.

PNNL’s Intelligent Load Control technology manages and adjusts electricity use in buildings when there’s peak demand on the power grid.

Following the energy crisis of 2000-2001, the State of Washington received financial settlements from six energy companies, a fraction of which was used for energy-efficiency research.

Changes in water volume tend to be smaller in managed watersheds but occur earlier.

PNNL is being honored with a sustainability award for its two decades of work advancing building energy codes.

Nora Wang, an energy efficiency researcher at PNNL, is one of 82 early-career engineers from across the country invited to participate in the annual NAE Frontiers of Engineering symposium.

The U.S. could slash its energy use by the equivalent of what is currently used by 12 to 15 million Americans if commercial buildings fully used energy-efficiency controls nationwide.
