is a high-speed network serving thousands of Department of Energy scientists and collaborators worldwide. A pioneer in providing high-bandwidth, reliable connections, ESnet enables researchers at national laboratories, universities and other institutions to communicate with each other using the collaborative capabilities needed to address some of the world's most important scientific challenges.

Managed and operated by the ESnet staff at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, ESnet provides direct connections to all major DOE sites (site list) with high performance speeds, as well as fast interconnections to more than 100 other networks. Funded principally by DOE's Office of Science, ESnet services allow scientists to make effective use of unique DOE research facilities and computing resources, independent of time and geographic location.

ESnet is funded by the DOE Office of Science to provide network and collaboration services in support of the agency's research missions.
