PNNL will lead three new grid modernization projects funded by the Department of Energy. The projects focus on scalability and usability, networked microgrids, and machine learning for a more resilient, flexible and secure power grid.

At a conference featuring the most advanced computing hardware and software, ML in its various guises was on full display and highlighted by Nathan Baker’s featured invited presentation.

PNNL’s Intelligent Load Control technology manages and adjusts electricity use in buildings when there’s peak demand on the power grid.

A PNNL technology enables automated Economic Dispatch, which coordinates the use of energy in a manner that enhances distributed generation, efficiency, renewables, and grid reliability.

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

Network Collapse, a virtual reality science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) app developed by PNNL researchers, has won a Gold Award from the 2019 International Serious Play Award.

A PNNL researcher peers into the future and sees homes and neighborhoods seamlessly working together to coordinate energy use.

Fifteen PNNL scientists are part of a team that has identified a set of biomarkers that indicate which patients infected with the Ebola virus are most at risk of dying from the disease.

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

PNNL will lead two new projects to advance resilient distribution systems and partner on three additional demonstrations aimed at validating new approaches and technologies to make the aging grid more resilient and secure.
