Examples of PNNL energy-storage technologies include a variety of apparatuses and methods for redox flow, lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and lithium-metal batteries. With our patented innovations, PNNL is knocking down barriers to superior
The Grid Storage Launchpad (GSL) is a $75 million national grid energy storage R&D facility that will accelerate development of next-generation grid energy storage technologies that are safer, more cost effective, and more durable.
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
part of the Energy Storage Grand Challenge, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is leading the development of a detailed cost and performance database for a variety of energy storage
PNNL research provides a clear understanding of the technology needs for integrating energy storage into the grid. We work with utilities and industry to assess the optimal role for energy storage installations under local operational and market conditions.

(Photo by Andrea Starr | Pacific Northwest National Laboratory) PNNL’s energy storage experts are leading the nation’s battery research and development agenda. They include highly cited researchers whose research ranks in the top one percent of those most cited in the field.
As part of the Energy Storage Grand Challenge (ESGC), Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is leading the development of a detailed cost and performance database for a variety of energy storage technologies that is easily accessible and referenceable for the entire energy stakeholder community.
In support of this challenge, PNNL is applying its rich history of battery research and development to provide DOE and industry with a guide to current energy storage costs and performance metrics for various technologies.
Our experts in advanced building controls are helping buildings become part of the energy storage solution, enabling homes and buildings to flex and adjust their loads automatically. PNNL research provides a clear understanding of the technology needs for integrating energy storage into the grid.
This work is based on previous storage cost and performance research at PNNL funded by DOE’s HydroWIRES Initiative (Mongird et al., 2019).
