A multi-institution research team led by PNNL is addressing curb usage management challenges in large urban areas by developing a city-scale dynamic curb use simulation tool and an open-source curb management platform.
PNNL is laying the groundwork for advancing energy equity and environmental justice through research to develop an innovative energy system that benefits everyone
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.
PNNL is leading a consortium that provides funding opportunities to the automotive industry for accelerating new lightweight technologies in on-highway vehicles.
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.
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.
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.
