PNNL is leading the nation with research addressing urgent needs for reimagining U.S. critical infrastructure against the realities of software-speed attacks and hazards.
PNNL conducts AVSEC research and training for multiple U.S. government sponsors. This research covers historical threat materials, methods of attack, and emerging threats due to advances in technology.
Cyber, physical, and blended cyber-physical threats are real, ubiquitous, and expensive to deal with. Private companies, government institutions, and critical infrastructures struggle to implement viable solutions as technology evolves.
PNNL’s pioneering CETC project with regional universities demonstrates transactive controls among multiple commercial buildings and devices for energy efficiency and grid reliability.
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is partnering with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency to develop and operate the Control Environment Laboratory Resource
Cyber networks are constantly under attack by bugs, bots, and nefarious actors. While system owners acutely understand the need to secure their networks, they’re not always sure of the best actions to take.
PNNL is developing open-source, equitable, standardized methods to quantify the environmental impacts of building system technologies and reduce barriers for the industry to participate in data-driven sustainability practices.
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.
PNNL is a leader in the integration of aberration-corrected electron microscopy, in-situ techniques, and atom probe tomography to address challenges in nuclear materials, environmental remediation, energy storage, and national security.
PNNL is laying the groundwork for advancing energy equity and environmental justice through research to develop an innovative energy system that benefits everyone
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 and collaborators have established a national heat pump and heat pump water heater partnership to help drive adoption of these energy-saving technologies in both residential and commercial buildings.
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.
