Mahon joined the advisory committee of the Pacific Offshore Wind Consortium and the external advisory panel for the Ocean and Resources Engineering department at the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa.

In a study off the West Coast, researchers find that although seabirds generally soar underneath the height of possible future wind turbine blades, more work is being done to fully understand seabird flight behavior.

Researchers seek to bring down costs, address potential environmental risks and maximize the benefits of harnessing wind energy above the deep waters of the Pacific.

The nation is closer to its offshore wind energy goals than ever before, but better wind forecasting is still needed. To address this challenge, PNNL and collaborators are charting a new course with help from novel technology.

In soil, microbes produce and consume methane. Using a technique called pool dilution, researchers can separate the rate of methane production and consumption from the net rate.

PNNL had a significant presence at October’s North American Wind Energy Academy/WindTech 2023 Conference in Denver, Colorado. Thirteen PNNL wind experts participated in various capacities.

Floating offshore wind farms could potentially triple the Pacific Northwest's wind power capacity while offsetting billions of dollars in costs for utilities, ratepayers, insurance companies, and others.

Two renewable energy approaches—enhanced geothermal systems and floating offshore wind energy—get new focus as Energy Earthshot™ Research Centers at PNNL.

Regional wind data helps utilities save money, plan for windy days.

PNNL and The University of Texas at El Paso expand their premier partnership to include the Cyber Halo Innovation Research Program.

Daniel Deng, mechanical engineer and Laboratory Fellow at PNNL, has been named 2022 PNNL Inventor of the Year.

DOE announced a new project, led by PNNL and National Renewable Energy Laboratory, to expand wind energy transmission off the nation’s West Coast.

A research buoy managed by PNNL has been deployed in Hawai’ian waters, collecting oceanographic and meteorological measurements off the coast of O’ahu.

PNNL is making waves in pursuit of a blue economy. Researchers are advancing science and technology to expand—and protect—the gifts of the sea.

A multi-institutional team of wind energy experts led by PNNL assessed the scientific grand challenges for offshore wind and provided recommendations for closing gaps in models.

Multidisciplinary teams from research and industry are brought together using management systems developed by a team of software engineers at PNNL.

Launching a premier partnership, PNNL and the University of Texas El Paso (UTEP) signed a memorandum of agreement on UTEP’s campus on October 6.

The IAC will advise the Secretary of Commerce on the science and technology needs of the microelectronics industry.

Amelia Hough-Ross, an IT engineer in Research Computing at PNNL, will be presenting at the Wonder Women Tech Ignite Virtual Summit on May 4-5, 2022.

PNNL experts perform fundamental climate science work at multiple scales to understand impacts on energy, water, food, and infrastructure systems.
