HydroWIRES initiative helps water stakeholders reap the full benefit of hydropower’s superpower: versatility

The Interfacial Dynamics in Radioactive Environments and Materials (IDREAM) Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) conducts fundamental science to support innovations in retrieving and processing high-level radioactive waste.

Researchers are bridging hydropower data gaps for unrivaled forecasting precision to support grid resilience.

The Institute for Integrated Catalysis (IIC) at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory explores and develops the chemistry and technology of catalyzed processes that enable a carbon-neutral future.

PNNL is one of five national laboratory JCESR -- a bold effort to transform the way we store energy to power vehicles and the electric grid.

PNNL administers two research buoys for the U.S. Department of Energy that allows collection of wind meteorological and oceanographic data off the nation's coasts.

PNNL is a testbed for the latest research and technologies in marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR)—leveraging the ocean’s strength as a natural carbon sink to address pressing climate concerns.

Research efforts at PNNL to co-locate marine energy with aquaculture developments for more sustainable operations.

PNNL's Ocean Dynamics Modeling group studies coastal processes such as marine-hydrokinetic energy, coastal circulations, storm surge and extreme waves, tsunamis, sediment transport and nutrient-macroalgal dynamics.

PNNL computer scientists are presenting the latest research in HPC at SC20.

Our nation’s critical infrastructure supports the security and wellbeing of our society. Maintaining the resilience of important markets and services is vital to upholding our way of life.  

The RD2C laboratory-directed research initiative seeks to develop resilient, adaptive, and intelligent sensing and control algorithms through the observational understanding and characterization of CPSs under adverse conditions.

Navigating the challenges of connecting hydropower to the electrical grid

PNNL’s Space Science, Technology, and Policy activities draw on diverse technical expertise and research capabilities from across the Laboratory.

PNNL researchers developed and manage the online database Tethys to actively collects and curates information on the environmental effects of wind and marine energy.
