Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

At PNNL, we deliver breakthrough science and technology to meet key national needs. We also apply our capabilities to meet selected environmental, energy, health and national security objectives, strengthen the economy, and support the education of future scientists and engineers. PNNL is managed by DOE's Office of Science, but we perform work for many DOE offices as well as other government agencies. PNNL's areas of research, from fundamental science to eventual commercial application, fall into seven main areas: Computing and Information Technology, Energy, Environment, Fundamental Science, Health and Safety, National Security, and Nuclear Technology.
