Turning the Tides
Their consistency and predictability makes tidal energy attractive, not only as a source of electricity but, potentially, as a mechanism to provide reliability and resilience to regional or local power grids.
Who Will Get the Prize for Better Hurricane Monitoring?
The Ocean Observing Prize is a competitive incentive program to help inventors advance new concepts for marine energy technologies that can power ocean observing systems, particularly those that inform us about hurricane formation.
Hydrogen Day
PNNL supports the mission of DOE's Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Technologies Office by exploiting the interplay of hydrogen and electrons. On October 8 of every year, we celebrate National Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Day.
