Energy-Community-Geo-Database
- National Energy Technology Laboratory
Fundamental to understanding evolving infrastructure and technology is understanding the drivers for energy communities that affect where and how infrastructure is placed and used. An Energy Community Geo Database aligned to carbon storage systems will aid stakeholders in decision making around key future infrastructure (e.g., CCS injection locations) placement while helping contextualize these analyses against past and present-day social and environmental attributes. Much of the data required to support analyses are available from authoritative, largely governmental sources, but at present are disparate and require time-consuming acquisition, integration, and upkeep for currency. The CCS-EC-GB v2.0 integrates datasets from various federal agencies and authoritative sources to aid stakeholders and decision makers of the social and environmental factors that might impact the viability of CCS and energy related project implementation. There are 5 categories in the CCS-EC-GB v2 database. Most of the layers within each category have been updated in this version. As compared to the old database, there is 1 new category in the CCS-EC-GB v2 database: infrastructure. This is an evolving project and application will be updated periodically with new datasets and information. Notes for consideration: This database/web map will be updated with additional as new data and information becomes available and has been processed, reviewed, and approved for release. Additional state and federal entity data are planned to be integrated and included in future revisions. Summary layers provided in this application are derived from proprietary layers and do not always contain key features (age, status, or TVD) and therefore might not be shown when data are queried for those features.
