The Hydrogen Safety Panel (HSP), led by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was established in 2003 to prioritize safety for hydrogen projects. After 20 years of contributions to the field of hydrogen safety, the HSP launched its new …
Clallam County, situated in the northwestern corner of Washington, boasts over 200 miles of coastline and is home to Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's Sequim campus. Abutted by the Salish Sea to the north and the Pacific Ocean to the west, the …
The Science Developing efficient carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation catalysts is crucial for both environmental protection and fundamental science studies. Researchers prepared palladium (Pd) single-atom catalysts (SACs) supported on titanium dioxide (TiO2). …
Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), Marisa Decillis and Luke Richards, contributed to a recent Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET) report, “Securing Critical Infrastructure in the Age of AI.” The report, published in …
The recent ribbon-cutting ceremony at Klickitat Valley Health (KVH) was a proud moment in the journey of the Energy Storage for Social Equity (ES4SE) initiative, a joint effort between Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and Sandia National …
Ying Xia, a graduate student at the University of Washington (UW), was selected as a Graduate Student Award Finalist for the 2024 Fall Meeting of the Materials Research Society (MRS). Xia is co-advised by Professors Jim De Yoreo and Jun Liu, both joint …
The Science The Pacific Northwest region of North America (PNW) has experienced devastating summer heatwaves in past years. Many studies have associated summer heat extremes in the PNW to the El Nino-Southern Oscillation and other variations of circulation …
RICHLAND, Wash.— Now is the time to banish low-level radioactive energy sources from facilities that house and conduct experiments with superconducting qubits, according to a pair of recently published studies. Significantly improving quantum device …
In science, the smallest details can hold the biggest answers—and they often reveal themselves with the right equipment. For driving innovative research on next-generation energy storage solutions, one of those essential tools is the Helios Hydra UX …
Over the past few years, the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) by the general public has rapidly increased with the development of AI chatbots. Since they are developed to understand natural languages, these large language model (LLM)-based programs …
The Science To compete with rising sea levels, coastal wetlands must receive adequate supplies of sediment and organic matter. Presently, there is disagreement in the scientific community on how fast these processes happen due to varying uncertainty and …
The Science Jet streams travel around the Earth and move north and south on cycles that last over two months, which is beyond the usual range of weather forecasts. Understanding the source of this “memory” directly affects scientists' ability to …
Energy storage is increasingly critical to building a resilient electric grid in the United States—a trend embodied by the Grid Storage Launchpad (GSL), a newly inaugurated, 93,000-square-foot facility at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL). GSL …
RICHLAND, Wash.— No two hydropower facilities are the same. They all work similarly by harnessing the power of rushing water to spin turbines and generators, which in turn creates electricity. But their differences—in size, age or mechanical parts—means …
The Science Increasing global emissions and warming have heightened the urgency of finding sites suitable for the long-term capture and storage of carbon dioxide (CO2). An approach that combines carbon storage with critical material extraction could make …
The Science Meeting the challenge of climate change requires finding ways to trap and store carbon dioxide. Olivine has been extensively explored for potential applications in carbon storage and recently, critical mineral recovery. The broad olivine …
Every summer, grid operators brace themselves for an increase in energy demand as people turn their air conditioners on. This makes summer a “peaking season” in many parts of the United States. Grid operators can generally predict and prepare for peaking …
Preparing the next generation to enter the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) workforce expands beyond internship opportunities. To prepare students and address the workforce gap in STEM careers, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) …
As universities and colleges in Washington resume fall courses, interns from Pathway Summer School (PSS) programs are taking back unique experiences and inspiration to the classroom. This year, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) hosted two PSS …
