Energy is critical to every aspect of modern society and to a thriving U.S. economy. Our nation needs to increase its energy production and delivery to meet the needs of our rapidly expanding energy demand—while also lowering costs and boosting resiliency. In collaboration with industry experts and the research community, PNNL scientists and engineers work every day toward a reliable, affordable, secure, and resilient energy future for all Americans. PNNL research supports U.S. Department of Energy priorities in key areas including:

  • Electric Grid Modernization
  • Energy Storage
  • Fossil Energy
  • Nuclear Energy
  • Environmental Management
  • Transportation and Industry
  • Energy Efficiency
  • Renewable Energy

Energy resiliency is a broad challenge that requires a multidisciplinary approach to identify and develop transformative solutions. Use the links above to learn more about how our energy resiliency work spans and connects these key areas of our research, where we also do so much more to advance American energy innovation.
