NREL publishes e-maps of renewable resources

A new geospatial application developed by the US Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has been published, offering users access to accurate maps of potential renewable energy resources in the United States.
NREL publishes e-maps of renewable resources

“Ease of use and breadth of data make RE Atlas an excellent tool for policymakers, planners, energy developers, and others who need to better understand the renewable resources available in the United States,” said Dan Getman, whose team in NREL’s Strategic Energy Analysis Center developed the tool. “RE Atlas is an important addition to NREL’s suite of geospatial tools, because it brings together so many renewable energy datasets in one easy-to-use tool.”

RE Atlas is designed to facilitate energy policy development, investment, and education by making high quality data accessible and easy to understand. The tool creates dynamic maps of renewable resources, including biomass, geothermal, hydropower, solar, and wind. RE Atlas can display resources individually or in a composite fashion.

The new maps are zoomable and draggable like Google Maps, providing accurate data on the location of clean energy sources such as on- and offshore wind, geothermal, solar (PV and CSP), ocean, biomass power at local, state, county or even congressional district level. Information provided by the US Environmental Protection Agency on designated brownfield sites and federal lands is also accessible.
