PNNL and four other national laboratories executed the Hydropower Value Study to examine hydropower operations in different regions of the United States.
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.
High school students from across Washington State competed in the Pacific Northwest Regional Science Bowl, hosted online by PNNL, for a chance to advance to the national competition in May.
A team of researchers from 10 national laboratories and eight universities is conducting hydraulic shearing tests to explore the potential for geothermal energy at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF).
PNNL has published a report that sets the foundation for modeling gaps and technical challenges in optimizing hydropower operations for both energy production and water management.
California and other areas of the U.S. Southwest may see less future winter precipitation than previously projected by climate models, according to new research that corrects for a long-standing model error: the double-ITCZ bias.
Beginning in 2021, PNNL chemical physicist Bruce Kay begins a three-year term as an AVS trustee, part of a six-member committee responsible for overseeing the administration of student scholarships and major society awards.
A research team from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory developed an apparatus that evaluates the performance of high-temperature fluids in hydraulic fracturing for enhanced geothermal systems.
Water and energy researchers are invited to join a new task force as a way to collaborate broadly on the intersection of the two topics. The task force is part of IEEE's Power and Energy Society and was launched by PNNL and UU researchers.
Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are closer to understanding how iron may pave the way for sequestration of technetium-99 contaminants in the subsurface.
PNNL has earned “Best Paper” at an international resilience conference for research on hydropower’s capabilities and constraints in the event of extreme events, like hurricanes and rolling blackouts.
Culminating 10 years of study, researchers at PNNL’s Marine and Coastal Research Laboratory developed a new predictive framework for estuarine–tidal river research and management.
