Renewable and Energy Efficiency Technologies Overview
Renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies are growing rapidly and, with increased penetration, are increasingly impacting how the electricity grid operates. This presentation outlines a number of the technologies and describes the research, development, and deployment the National Renewable Energy Laboratory is partaking on them. It also provides data on the growth of renewable electricity generation technologies over the last decade and how their increasing generation impacts grid operations. It is intended for an audience familiar with energy technologies but who are not experts in either renewable energy or the electricity grid such as attendees at the virtual course nuclear-renewable integrated systems.
