PNNL is helping communities with significant historical ties to fossil energy understand opportunities and pursue numerous federal resources available to support coal power plant redevelopment.
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 electronic (PEL) driven devices.
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’s ESMI is a Laboratory-funded research and development (R&D) program focused on transforming and accelerating materials development processes for next-generation energy storage technologies.
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 wind energy experts are helping to design a new avian radar system that will be equipped on lidar buoys to detect avian activity over open water and near offshore wind turbines.
The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is developing a Port Electrification Handbook—a reference to aid maritime ports nationwide in their clean energy transition.
National laboratories, industry and academia are collaborating to provide electric vehicle manufacturers with batteries that are more reliable, high-performing, safe, and less expensive.
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.
