When reviewing electric vehicles (EVs), automobile journalists usually cite a long list of superlatives — they’re quick, quiet, reliable and economical, and their ranges keep increasing while charge times keep getting faster. But oftentimes, there’s a caveat: The charging networks in some U.S. cities and highway corridors aren’t always reliable, [...]

When reviewing electric vehicles (EVs), automobile journalists usually cite a long list of superlatives — they’re quick, quiet, reliable and economical, and their ranges keep increasing while charge times keep getting faster. But oftentimes, there’s a caveat: The charging networks in some U.S. cities and highway corridors aren’t always reliable, journalists report. Even when drivers […]

Accurately forecasting how much power individual stations will demand from the electric grid is a major challenge facing the rapid expansion of electric vehicle (EV) charging in the United States. While other electricity consumers, such as apartment buildings or factories, are known quantities that grid operators can plan for, the [...]

Accurately forecasting how much power individual stations will demand from the electric grid is a major challenge facing the rapid expansion of electric vehicle (EV) charging in the United States. While other electricity consumers, such as apartment buildings or factories, are known quantities that grid operators can plan for, the grid-load characteristics of EV charging […]

Seven Idaho National Laboratory (INL) researchers were among nearly 400 scientists and engineers named Tuesday as recipients of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE). “We take great pride in the accomplishments of our outstanding researchers, who are working to change the world’s energy future and secure [...]

There’s a reason that electric vehicles (EV) in salvage yards are kept by themselves and spaced far apart. Their lithium-ion batteries can hold a lot of energy, and if one catches fire, it’s sometimes hard for firefighters to extinguish the blaze. Even if the fire appears to be out, it [...]

There’s a reason that electric vehicles (EV) in salvage yards are kept by themselves and spaced far apart. Their lithium-ion batteries can hold a lot of energy, and if one catches fire, it’s sometimes hard for firefighters to extinguish the blaze. Even if the fire appears to be out, it can reignite later, said Randy […]

As companies worldwide switch from analog to automated digital industrial control systems, malicious cyber actors are finding new opportunities for extortion and mayhem. It’s happening in a range of industrial settings, from power stations to manufacturing plants, and it’s a growing problem in the aviation industry. In January, aircraft leasing [...]

As companies worldwide switch from analog to automated digital industrial control systems, malicious cyber actors are finding new opportunities for extortion and mayhem. It’s happening in a range of industrial settings, from power stations to manufacturing plants, and it’s a growing problem in the aviation industry. In January, aircraft leasing giant AerCap Holdings confirmed it […]

The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville have agreed to cooperate in areas of mutual scientific and technical interest, including applied and advanced nuclear technology. Battelle Energy Alliance and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that will foster collaboration between INL [...]

For the first time in seven years, Idaho National Laboratory and Idaho Falls played host to National Nuclear Science Week, which takes place the third week of October every year. Any U.S. city with a strong connection to the atom can apply to host the Nuclear Science Week national event. [...]

For the first time in seven years, Idaho National Laboratory and Idaho Falls played host to National Nuclear Science Week, which takes place the third week of October every year. Any U.S. city with a strong connection to the atom can apply to host the Nuclear Science Week national event. Much has changed since 2017, […]

(IDAHO FALLS, Idaho) — Idaho National Laboratory and the newly established Idaho National Laboratory Foundation are pleased to announce a partnership that will complement the lab’s mission through enhanced community connections that can only be leveraged through an independent, nonprofit organization. The foundation, which operates separately from INL, is designed [...]

As nations explore ways to reduce carbon emissions, nuclear energy is increasingly recognized as a safe, reliable option for coping with the increase in electricity use. Further, tomorrow’s advanced nuclear reactors are smaller and more flexible than today’s reactor fleet, which allows them to integrate more renewables with the grid, [...]

As nations explore ways to reduce carbon emissions, nuclear energy is increasingly recognized as a safe, reliable option for coping with the increase in electricity use. Further, tomorrow’s advanced nuclear reactors are smaller and more flexible than today’s reactor fleet, which allows them to integrate more renewables with the grid, provide heat for industry, and […]
