Advancements such as LEDs have changed consumers’ experience with lighting. Whereas there was once a simple choice of how much light a consumer desired, there’s now a variety of choices to be made about the appearance of light.
Global climate change is often at the forefront of national and international discussions and controversies, yet many details of the specific contributing factors are poorly understood.
In the third year of the DISCOVR Consortium project, the consortium team has identified an algal strain that progressed successfully through multiple evaluation phases.
A multi-institute research team is exploring ways to improve residential walls across America, making homes warmer and drier and delivering significant energy savings.
Scientists at PNNL are bringing artificial intelligence into the quest to see whether computers can help humans sift through a sea of experimental data.
B3? E4? Remember the board game Battleship? One player suggests a set of coordinates to another, hoping to find the elusive location of an unseen vessel.That is a good place to start in assessing the search for dark matter.
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.
More than 350 people from scientific institutions, education and the private sector gathered at the PNNL campus July 30 for the IEEE Women in Engineering International Leadership Summit.
A staple in horror movies, flickering lights can also summon potential human health and productivity concerns. PNNL studied hand-held meters that measure flicker, and the results could improve future measurement and lighting strategies.
Researchers at PNNL have introduced an alternative method using a molecular-based pump that could potentially use a quarter less energy than the age-old mechanical pump.
Researchers at PNNL construct a novel approach that requires less field work while delivering critical information on building code compliance and energy efficiency in new homes.
PNNL’s Solid State Lighting program evaluated the energy and photometric performance of adjustable LED lighting systems installed in three California classrooms as part of a GATEWAY study.
A study co-led by PNNL and reviewed in Science investigates how nanomaterials—both ancient and modern—cycle through the Earth’s air, water, and land, and calls for a better understanding of how they affect the environment and human health.
PNNL scientists have taken one of the most in-depth looks ever at the riot of protein activity that underlies colon cancer and have identified potential new molecular targets to try to stop the disease.
Following the energy crisis of 2000-2001, the State of Washington received financial settlements from six energy companies, a fraction of which was used for energy-efficiency research.
In one of the largest blockchain grid-cyber projects of its kind, PNNL is working with a network of industry partners to test and demonstrate blockchain’s ability to increase the cybersecurity resilience of power grid.
Scientists created a fast-track tutorial that equips a neural network to tackle drug discovery and other applications where there's a shortage of precisely labeled chemical data.
