In this article for GreenMoney Journal, Doug Arent, Executive Director of the Joint Institute for Strategic Energy Analysis, reviews recent energy systems investment patterns and discusses what they mean for the future of energy in the United States and around the world.
This issue of Continuum Magazine covers the depth and breadth of NREL's ever-expanding analytical capabilities. For example, in one project we are leading national efforts to create a computer model of one of the most complex systems ever built. This system, the eastern part of the North American power grid, will likely host an increasing percentage of renewable energy in years to come. Understanding how this system will work is important to its success - and NREL analysis is playing a major role. We are also identifying the connections among energy, the environment and the economy through analysis that will point us toward a 'water smart' future.
This concept brief explains revolving loan funds and how commercial real estate organizations can use them for energy efficiency or renewable energy projects.
This case study describes how the Tower Companies pursued the first solar photovoltaic (PV) installation on a large, class A office building in Washington, D.C. It also details how The Tower Companies sought solar as opportunity to engage stakeholders on sustainability.
This case study details a project completed by Efficiency Vermont to install 66 high-efficiency rooftop unit replacements on a large 140,000-square-foot office building, which realized 163 kW in electricity demand reduction and $93,000 annual utility cost savings.
This case study from Madera Community Hospital describes the installation of a 1,140-kilowatt ground-mounted solar photovoltaic array through a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA). The array produces 2,183,220 kWh annually and offsets approximately 40% of the hospital’s electricity consumption.
This case study describes a multi-site solar photovoltaic (PV) installation project undertaken by BJ’s Wholesale Club. It describes how BJ’s worked with their landlords to overcome the split incentive of the installation, ongoing operational requirements, roof maintenance, and vacancy/turnover at several locations in Massachusetts, Maryland, and New Jersey.
This fact sheet explores the role insurance and re-insurance industries play in mitigating resilience risk and offers best practices for building owners to work effectively with insurers. It also reviews the types of insurance coverages relevant to resilience as well as efforts by the insurance industry to respond to increased risk.
This fact sheet provides actionable planning steps for developing a resilience roadmap in your organization. These steps can serve as an outline to help portfolio managers and other stakeholders manage the financial performance of a commercial building portfolio.
A two-page resource that briefly explains commercial property assessed clean energy for state and local governments.
This fact sheet provides an overview of trends and barriers related to disclosure of climate and resilience performance. It reviews major reporting frameworks for resilience, compares the frameworks, and provides next steps for building owners.
State and local governments have a limited window of opportunity to leverage recently-extended federal tax credits to accelerate the deployment of clean, renewable energy. Federal tax credits have played an important role in the rapid growth of the U.S. renewable energy industry. This DOE guide outlines the wide array of resources available to state and local governments interested in leveraging federal tax credits to accelerate the deployment of clean, renewable energy.
This fact sheet highlights way organizations can work with their utility provider to better understand the variety of energy efficiency programs and incentives available to them.
