In new work, PNNL researchers find that 10 gigatons of carbon dioxide may need to be pulled from Earth's atmosphere and oceans annually to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. A diverse suite of carbon dioxide removal methods will be key.
Report for the Oregon Public Utility Commission highlights innovations and best practices for resilience and utility planning could be helpful to other states as well.
A team from the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory published research, demonstrating that the soil microbes were directly involved in the stabilization of soil organic carbon and mineral weathering.
PNNL scientists carve a path to profit from carbon capture by creating a system that efficiently captures CO2 and converts it into one of the world’s most widely used chemicals: methanol.
Extreme winter storms are growing wetter and changing shape in the Western United States—such changes could compromise infrastructure designed to withstand only so much water.
The Joint Appointment program at PNNL is one of the most diverse among other U.S. national laboratories, involving nearly 60 universities and research institutions in the United States and abroad.
A review article led by researcher Jade Holliman explores the different classes of metamaterials, from the underlying fundamental science to potential applications.
A PNNL team developed and used a model framework to understand the performance and structural reliability of a state-of-the-art solid oxide electrolysis cell design.
The world's current climate pledges won't limit global warming to 1.5 °C. We will overshoot. A new study shows that more ambitious climate pledges could minimize the overshoot.
PNNL gathered researchers from eight national laboratories plus the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to share ideas and build synergy at the Energy Equity and Environmental Justice Summit.
