What AI says about NREL Maps

The Innovative Data Energy Applications (IDEA) group at NREL builds interactive, map-based software to support the clean energy transition. It offers a portfolio of data-driven tools and atlases—such as SLOPE, Accelerating Speed to Power, Apex, Marine Energy Atlas, National Solar Radiation Database, Wind Resource Database, Geothermal Prospector, RE Data Explorer, BioEnergy Atlas, and more—that visualize energy resources, decarbonization scenarios, siting decisions, and infrastructure. These applications are designed for planners, policymakers, researchers, and industry to analyze strategies, compare impacts, and make informed, data-driven decisions.
