The Triton Initiative introduces its next generation of projects focused on researching stressor/receptor interactions for marine energy applications.

Molly Grear, an ocean engineer in the Coastal Sciences Division at PNNL, recently helped middle school summer science camp students from Blatchley Middle School in Sitka, Alaska, design their own energy wave converters.

PNNL has received 119 R&D 100 Awards since 1969, when the laboratory began submitting entries in the contest that recognizes top 100 inventions each year.

Internship focused on detecting and characterized baleen whale vocalization activity near the future PacWave test site in Newport, Oregon.

The Triton Initiative supports projects funded through U.S. Department of Energy funding opportunity announcements developing environmental monitoring technologies for marine energy.

PNNL researchers can make methane from captured CO2 and renewably sourced hydrogen, offering a path toward cheaper synthetic natural gas.

Voice for ocean-based climate solutions and strategist for PNNL’s Coastal Sciences Division, Simon Geerlofs, speaks about the Triton Initiative.

Cailene Gunn discusses her work in science communication and how she communicates the Triton Initiative's research to help advance the marine energy industry.

For World Oceans Month, Triton Stories highlights Coastal Science Division director Genevra Harker-Klimeš, who helped create the Triton Initiative.

Samantha Eaves discusses the future of marine energy and her role with Triton from the Department of Energy Water Power Technologies Office perspective.  

Coastal Sciences Division group leader, Meg Pinza, helped build Triton into a thought leader in the field of marine energy environmental monitoring.

The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded funding to PNNL for the design and construction of a hybrid research vessel and an underwater testbed to be located at PNNL-Sequim.

PNNL teamed with academia and industry to develop a novel zero-emission methane pyrolysis process that produces both hydrogen and high-value carbon solids suitable for an array of manufacturing applications.

PNNL’s newest solvent captures carbon dioxide from power plants for as little as $47.10 per metric ton, marking a significant milestone in the journey to lower the cost of carbon capture.
