Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

An @ENERGY national lab advancing the frontiers of scientific discovery, improving energy resiliency, and enhancing national security.

[Pacific Northwest National Laboratory @PNNLab]

We recently welcomed @EMcleanup assistant secretary Timothy Walsh & @HanfordSite manager Ray Geimer to PNNL.

With roots in the Manhattan Project & Hanford Site, PNNL has supported the EM mission for nearly 60 years.

[ORNL Isotopes @ORNLIsotopes]

ORNL and @PNNLab helped DOE produce silicon and germanium isotopes with 100x less isotopic noise than commercial materials—strengthening U.S. supply chains and advancing quantum technology. 🇺🇸

Power system disruptions can happen in seconds. Could synchrophasors help utilities detect and respond faster? @PNNLab’s new NASPI video shows how the technology can strengthen grid reliability, reduce downtime, and improve customer service. Watch ⬇️

[Abdullah Kahraman @kahraman_88]

Our joint work across @PNNLab & @SLAClab (Stanford PULSE Inst. and LCLS) is featured by the news, detailing how we combined ultrafast X-ray spectroscopy and scattering with quantum simulations to track proton-coupled electron transfer in real-time.

@DOEelectricity Thank you for visiting PNNL!
We are proud to support @DOEelectricity and to take on the toughest challenges presented by grid modernization.

[Pacific Northwest National Laboratory @PNNLab]

We take on the toughest challenges presented by grid modernization.
By effectively integrating distributed energy resources and loads, we aim to provide flexibility that can help meet the rising demand for electricity, lower cost, & improve resiliency of the electricity system.

[Pacific Northwest National Laboratory @PNNLab]

We were privileged to host Katie Jereza, @DOEelectricity assistant secretary, for a visit highlighting PNNL’s research supporting a reliable, affordable, and secure electric grid.⚡

Fusion is taking center stage in Washington state!

We're proud to host the Tri-Cities portion of the 2026 Washington State Fusion Week and are honored to have @GovBobFerguson join researchers & industry leaders to highlight Washington's growing role in the fusion energy sector.

[Office of Electricity | U.S. Department of Energy @DOEelectricity]

On Sept. 30, join us at @PNNLab for the 2026 Energy Storage as Transmission Forum to discuss deploying storage as a transmission asset, which can help improve grid affordability and reliability and support a more flexible, cost-effective power system. https://t.co/bkL8HmD9OM

[Office of Electricity | U.S. Department of Energy @DOEelectricity]

Attention state regulatory and energy office staff!

Join us at the Energy Storage Regulatory Summit at @PNNLab Sept. 28–29. Hear from DOE, labs, and state peers, tour storage/grid facilities, and help shape future work! https://t.co/80U47WU2uE

[DOE CESER @DOE_CESER]

CESER along with @PNNLab recently held 3 days of practical training at CyFERS in Milwaukee. Featuring interactive exercises, & panel discussions for State & territory officials, they discussed long-term resilience across the cyber threat landscape & more.

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

Air-free environments are one of the hardest places for humans to work in -- love that we built the largest robotic anaerobic lab in the world for @PNNLab to address this!

Important vision from @MichaelKratsios, @ScienceUnderSec, and @POTUS to make US national labs into the "cloud lab" infrastructure for US scientists to order experiments and to connect with AI! Cant wait to see more of these built!

[DOE Environmental Management @EMcleanup]

During a recent tour of the @PNNLab, Assistant Secretary Tim Walsh explained how cutting-edge research, AI, and machine learning are revolutionizing the EM cleanup mission.

👀 An ultrasound that allows researchers to look inside of a nuclear power reactor? ⚛️⚡

With nondestructive evaluation, PNNL materials experts use advanced sensors and imaging to "see" through solid steel and concrete.

Check out this @NRCgov work with physicist Rick Jacob.
