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.
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 and the United States Geological Survey are partnering to develop a buoy-based radar system capable of measuring bird and bat abundances and behaviors at offshore locations.
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 wind energy experts led a project to review existing literature focusing on the technical evaluation of offshore wind energy transmission through potential points of interconnection at the West Coast.
