Applied Research Center

From sustainable energy to effective healthcare to security at home, our nation is counting on rapid developments of practical new technologies. At South Carolina’s Applied Research Center (ARC), many of America’s most skilled researchers are working daily to advance our knowledge and use of technology. Established as a hydrogen energy research facility in 2006, ARC’s mission expanded to encompass the broader needs of government, academia, and the private sector. This 60,000-square-foot facility, combining state-of-the-art laboratories and a conference center, is home to many organizations, including the Department of Energy’s Savannah River National Laboratory.
