Renewable Electricity Futures Study. Volume 1: Exploration of High-Penetration Renewable Electricity Futures

Technical Report Mai, T ; Wiser, R ; Sandor, D ; ...

The Renewable Electricity Futures (RE Futures) Study investigated the challenges and impacts of achieving very high renewable electricity generation levels in the contiguous United States by 2050. The analysis focused on the sufficiency of the geographically diverse U.S. renewable resources to meet electricity demand over future decades, the hourly operational characteristics of the U.S. gridwith high levels of variable wind and solar generation, and the potential implications of deploying high levels of renewables in the future. RE Futures focused on technical aspects of high penetration of renewable electricity; it did not focus on how to achieve such a future throughmore »« less

Renewable Electricity Procurement Options Data (RE-POD)

Dataset Day, Megan

The Renewable Electricity Procurement Options Data (RE-POD) is an aggregated dataset meant to help local jurisdictions and utility customers within those jurisdictions understand the options that may be available to them to procure renewable electricity or renewable energy credits to meet energy goals. This data is part of a suite of state and local energy profile data available at the "State and Local Energy Profile Data Suite" link below and builds on Cities-LEAP energy modeling, available at the "EERE Cities-LEAP Page" link below. Examples of how to use the data to inform energy planning can be found at the "Examplemore » Uses" link below.« less
