This poster provides an overview a smarter typical meteorological dataset to advance accuracy in solar energy yield estimation.
This dataset consists of a collection of Excel spreadsheets that contain output from analysis specified in the workshop. The analysis involves ASME V&V 20-style validation as well as the application of a supplement methodology for regression of validation comparison error and validation uncertainty to application points where experimental data does not exist for comparison. The simulation results and experimental data are provided by the workshop organizers and a NASA report, respectively.
Time-series, PV performance field data from 2019-2020 for the bifacial tracking research field at NREL. Dataset also contains meterological data for site.
This dataset contains snow water, precipitation, and discharge data collected from the East River watershed. This provides insight as to how the watershed works as a system and responds to hydrological perturbations.
Influenza epidemics result in a public health and economic burden worldwide. Traditional surveillance techniques, which rely on doctor visits, provide data with a delay of 1 to 2 weeks. A means of obtaining real-time data and forecasting future outbreaks is desirable to provide more timely responses to influenza epidemics. This study aimed to present the first implementation of a novel dataset by demonstrating its ability to supplement traditional disease surveillance at multiple spatial resolutions. We used internet traffic data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website to determine the potential usability of this data source. Additionally, we tested the traffic generated by 10 influenza-related pages in 8 states and 9 census divisions within the United States and compared it against clinical surveillance data.

Federal and state decarbonization goals have led to numerous financial incentives and policies designed to increase access and adoption of renewable energy systems. In combination with the declining cost of both solar photovoltaic and battery energy storage systems and rising electric utility rates, residential renewable adoption has become more favorable than ever. However, not all states provide the same opportunity for cost recovery, and the complicated and changing policy and utility landscape can make it difficult for households to make an informed decision on whether to install a renewable system. This paper is intended to provide a guide to households considering renewable adoption by introducing relevant factors that influence renewable system performance and payback, summarized in a state lookup table for quick reference. Five states are chosen as case studies to perform economic optimizations based on net metering policy, utility rate structure, and average electric utility price; these states are selected to be representative of the possible combinations of factors to aid in the decision-making process for customers in all states. The results of this analysis highlight the dual importance of both state support for renewables and price signals, as the benefits of residential renewable systems are best realized in states with net metering policies facing the challenge of above-average electric utility rates. This dataset is intended to allow readers to reproduce and customize the analysis performed in this work to their benefit. Suggested modifications include: location, household load profile, rate tariff structure, and renewable energy system design.
Energy insecurity affects most low-income households in the United States. Energy insecurity, which is characterized by a household’s inability to afford their energy needs, often leads to risky choices, causing other forms of insecurity including food and health. Although there are government programs designed to provide relief to low-income households that face energy insecurity, eligibility for these programs is usually determined by household income, and those with incomes close to the threshold face uncertainty or may be left out. In many cases, these households turn to energy-limiting behaviors as a strategy to lower their electric utility bills. This paper explores the relationship between energy insecurity and energy-limiting behaviors to investigate alternative solutions that target the households that may fall out of available energy assistance programs. We explore the role of battery energy storage systems and rooftop solar photovoltaics in improving energy affordability. The results show that residential rooftop solar and behind-the-meter energy storage can offset two-thirds of the bill savings that households attain through energy-limiting behavior. Household renewable energy systems could complement existing energy assistance programs to provide long-term bill relief, enabling occupants to live in their homes with comfort and dignity. This dataset is intended to allow readers to reproduce and customize the analysis performed in this work to their benefit.
Uninterrupted access to electricity is critical to the safety and security of American households. More frequent and extreme emergency events increase outages across the country, disproportionately impacting vulnerable communities that experience the most frequent and longest outages, are most sensitive to the loss of electric power, and have the least capacity to adapt to these conditions. This study devises a metric, the Electric Vulnerability Index (EVI), and validates this metric against the 2021 Winter Storm Uri in Texas. Though not ubiquitous, similar trends were observed between adjacent areas with higher EVI and those with higher outage rates from this storm. EVI is offered as a viable approach to quantify a population’s vulnerability to electric outages and maps that index across the continental United States to aid policymakers, advocates, and energy system stakeholders in the targeted deployment of resilience solutions, such as energy storage, to communities most in need. This dataset includes the geopackage file containing all relevant attributes used to generate the maps used in the accompanying paper.
The Mantis Shrimp Dataset (MSD) is a combination of matched cutouts of galaxies with known redshift in the ultra-violet, optical, and infrared wavelengths. MSD redshifts come from ''high-quality'' (as reported by the spectroscopic experiment) redshift measurements from a variety of spectroscopic surveys, including: SDSS, DESI early release, DEEP2, GAMA, VVDS, VIPERS, 6dF, and WiggleZ. Each redshift is accompanies with astrometry (ra,dec) pairs that were used to query cutout image services from PanSTARRs, UnWISE, and GALEX servers. The main data products are image vectors of these cutouts accompanied by the redshift value to be used to train computer vision networks on the supervised photometric redshift task. We also provide extinction values pre-queried at each galaxies' astrometry from the PLANCK and SFD dutstmaps, the SDSS MGS photometric redshift from Beck 2014 (if available) and the WISE x PS1 STRM photometric redshift for the galaxy (if available).
