NREL Led PR100 Study That Modeled Possible Scenarios Built on Stakeholder Priorities of Energy Affordability, Resilience and Reliability, Land Use, and Economic Benefits
“We live in remarkably challenging times. It is collaborative efforts such as PR100 that show NREL answering those challenges in inspiring ways,” said NREL Director Martin Keller. “What I find exhilarating about the PR100 study is that it validates NREL’s approach to such all-encompassing community visions—it is a result of our extensive dialogue with the people who will bring these ideas to life.
“No one can say ‘I did not know about ’ or ‘I was not a part of it’,” remarked Eduardo Bhatia, a former Puerto Rico senator who sat on the advisory group. “Anyone who wanted to be part of it was a part of it.” Six national laboratory models were used in concert to produce each scenario, including NREL’s dGen and Engage , PRAS , and SIENNA tools.Researchers used NREL’s dGen model to calculate the likely adoption of distributed solar and storage based on the financial savings and value of backup power to building owners and prioritized for critical services through installation and use of distributed energy resources.
