PNNL and Argonne researchers developed and tested a chemical process that successfully captures radioactive byproducts from used nuclear fuel so they could be sent to advanced reactors for destruction while also producing electrical power.

PNNL researchers are developing the only tool that can control large-scale distributed energy resources in real time.

When two powerful earthquakes rocked southern California earlier this month, officials’ attention focused, understandably, on safety. How many people were injured? Were buildings up to code? How good are we at predicting earthquakes?

PNNL has developed a unique suite of tools that utilize satellite imagery to generate timely damage assessments with revealing detail.

It’s hot in there! PNNL researchers take a close, but nonradioactive, look at metal particle formation in a nuclear fuel surrogate material. What they found will help fill knowledge gaps and could lead to better nuclear fuel designs.

Xenon search successful! A new scanning transmission electron microscope helps PNNL researchers find xenon deep in a section of nuclear fuel cladding.

PNNL scientists today unveiled an updated tool designed to help stakeholders assess the nation's preparedness for biological-based dangers, also known as biothreats.

Researchers used novel methods to safely create and analyze plutonium samples. The approaches could prove influential in future studies of the radioactive material, benefitting research in legacy, national security and nuclear fuels.

Plug and Play DER Challenge seeks to enable distributed energy technologies to integrate, connect and operate in harmony on the power grid.

Linking microscale processes and macroscale fluxes using soil properties in a process-rich simulation.

A rocket will thunder off from a NASA launch pad this weekend, carrying a handful of seeds that are part of a science experiment in which PNNL plays a key role.

PNNL has been honored with three awards for excellence in transferring technologies to private sector by the Federal Laboratory Consortium.

Grid modernization, improved energy storage goals of agreement between PNNL and East Coast energy company.

If the frequency of droughts increases, the time between droughts likely won't be long enough for trees to recover.
