Programs

Sandia’s research programs span the breadth of work in energy—from electric grid modernization to renewable energy, from nuclear power plant safety to electric vehicle technologies. Our research is aligned with the nation’s energy priorities: tackling the climate crisis; accelerating transformation in the transportation sector; and improving energy system resilience, safety, and security. Our research is also informed and shaped by our work in communities in the Arctic and on tribal land. Through fundamental and applied R&D and physical and computational research, we are leveraging our capabilities to solve complex energy problems.Our research programs support the resilience and security of our nation’s energy systems and accelerate transformation in the transportation sector through fundamental and applied R&D and physical and computational research.
