The Community Emissions Data System (CEDS) provides historical emissions data are used both for general analysis and assessment and also for model validation through comparisons with observations.
PNNL’s pioneering CETC project with regional universities demonstrates transactive controls among multiple commercial buildings and devices for energy efficiency and grid reliability.
The Joint Global Change Research Institute conducts research to advance fundamental understanding of human and Earth systems and provide decision-relevant information for management of emerging global risks and opportunities.
The Molecular Observation Network is a national open science network designed to produce a comprehensive database of molecular and microstructural information on soil, water, microbial communities, and biogenic emissions.
Physics-informed machine learning (PIML) is a modeling approach that harnesses the power of machine learning and big data to improve the understanding of coupled, dynamic systems.
Poorly insulated walls in residential buildings waste an estimated quadrillion+ Btus of energy per year. Upgrading windows and insulation during re-siding projects is a unique, cost-effective opportunity to improve efficiency and comfort.
PNNL is working on behalf of the U.S. Department of Energy to create a prototype system that enables homes to help provide services to the power grid while delivering economic benefits to residents.
The Water Cycle and Climate Extremes Modeling (WACCEM) Scientific Focus Area advances predictive understanding of water cycle variability and change through foundational research using models, observations, and novel numerical experiments.
