PNNL awarded $1.5M to advance, commercialize 6 lab-developed technologies
PNNL is working with UniEnergy Technologies to develop a health monitoring system for flow batteries, such as PNNL's vanadium flow battery shown here.
DOE is awarding PNNL nearly $1.5 million to bring six technologies closer to commercial use. The projects were announced today by DOE's Office of Technology Transitions , which selected them for funding from its Technology Commercialization Fund. The technologies show great promise, but need further development to improve their potential use in commercial products or services.
Focus on Application, End-Use Industry, Activated Carbon Type, Raw Material, and Region

PNNL is using its technology licensing income to match DOE funding for most of its new projects, though two of the projects involve matching support from industrial partners. As a result, the total value of PNNL's six new projects is nearly $3 million.
