The Grid Modernization Lab Consortium (GMLC) is developing solutions, strategies, and resources for better integrating equity and justice goals in electricity planning and operations.
Energy experts at PNNL are helping 56 states and territories deliver their state energy security plans (SESPs) through a transparent and collaborative review process.
In January 2024, CESER—in partnership with GDO, NASEO, and PNNL—created a set of state energy security cohorts to support the coordination and technical development of state energy security planning, assessment, and mitigation.
The E-COMP Initiative is creating new capabilities that enable the optimized design and operation of energy systems subject to multiple objectives and with high levels of power electronics.
The Grid Storage Launchpad (GSL) is a national capability for energy storage research funded by the Department of Energy Office of Electricity and located on the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) campus in Richland, Washington
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.
FEMP's operations and maintenance (O&M) resources offer federal agencies technology- and management-focused guidance to improve energy and water efficiency and ensure safer and more reliable 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.
The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is developing a Port Electrification Handbook—a reference to aid maritime ports nationwide in their clean energy transition.
PNNL researchers developed and manage the online database Tethys to actively collects and curates information on the environmental effects of wind and marine energy.
This 18-month study will analyze how the region can meet its needs for reliable, resilient, and affordable energy along with decarbonization goals and other energy policies and priorities.
