The verdict
Brookhaven holds 106 US patents across 81 technology areas — rank #3,470 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC has been granted 106 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC at rank #3,470 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 81 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02E (REDUCTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS [GHG] EMISSIONS, RELATED TO ENERGY GENERATION, TRANSMISSION OR DISTRIBUTION). As a US Corporation, Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 58.0/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 31 grants, compared with 75 in the 2015–2019 window — a -59% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC's 18.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 81 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Brookhaven's 106 grants land it in the top 5% by Innovation Score — but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity — not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
