PNNL researchers deploying and testing novel building technologies and energy-management approaches.

PNNL’s Olga Marina and Shank Kulkarni were recognized for their hydrogen research at the DOE Hydrogen Program’s annual merit review June 7–11.

PNNL’s energy-efficient dehumidifier may reduce energy consumption by up to 50% in residential A/C systems and increase the range of electric vehicles by up to 75%. The system has been licensed to Montana Technologies.

The first customized resource of its kind, H-BEST analyzes the indoor environmental quality profile for buildings and helps its users identify the costs and benefits of improvements.

Modeling study suggests vigorous ventilation can cause spike in viral concentrations

PNNL’s Framework for Assessment of Complex Environmental Tradeoffs helps navigate and evaluate competing environmental, economic, and social impacts.

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

U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm virtually visits PNNL, one of several national lab visits she is conducting.

PNNL licensed two technologies to generate hydrogen. One, a reactor design, generates hydrogen from natural gas. The second innovation uses a 3D printing method to economically manufacture the generator.

Principles derived from coastal wetlands to describe wetland channel cross-sections were applicable to the Columbia River estuary, but not the tidal river.

Risk analysis on the plutonium-fueled power system that supplies electricity to the Mars rover answered the “what if” nuclear safety questions for NASA.

Analytical chemist shares passion for STEM, innovation and nuclear fuel
