Post, September 29, 2026 • (National Laboratory of the Rockies) Time-coincident load, wind, and solar data including actual and probabilistic forecast datasets at 5-min resolution for ERCOT, MISO, NYISO, and SPP. Wind and solar profiles are supplied for existing sites as well as planned sites based on interconnection queue projects as of 2021. For ERCOT...

Data Sets for Evaluation of Building Fault Detection and Diagnostics Algorithms

Post, September 29, 2026 • (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory) This documentation and dataset can be used to test the performance of automated fault detection and diagnostics algorithms for buildings. The dataset was created by LBNL, PNNL, NLR, ORNL and ASHRAE RP-1312 (Drexel University). It includes data for air-handling units and rooftop units simulated with PNNL's...

End-Use Load Profiles for the U.S. Building Stock

Post, September 29, 2026 • (National Laboratory of the Rockies) The United States is embarking on an ambitious transition to a 100% clean energy economy by 2050, which will require improving the flexibility of electric grids. One way to achieve grid flexibility is to shed or shift demand to align with changing grid needs. To...

Global Value Chain and Manufacturing Analysis on Geothermal Power Plant Turbines

Post, November 13, 2025 • (National Renewable Energy Laboratory) In this study, we have undertaken a robust analysis of the global supply chain and manufacturing costs for components of Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Turboexpander and steam turbines used in geothermal power plants. We collected a range of market data influencing manufacturing from various data sources...

Photovoltaic Data Acquisition (PVDAQ) Public Datasets

Post, September 29, 2026 • (National Laboratory of the Rockies) The NLR PVDAQ is a large-scale time-series database containing system metadata and performance data from a variety of experimental PV sites and commercial public PV sites. The datasets are used to perform on-going performance and degradation analysis. Some of the sets can exhibit common elements...

U.S. and International Solar Radiation Database

Post, November 13, 2025 • (National Renewable Energy Laboratory) The National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB) is a serially complete collection of hourly and half-hourly values of meteorological data and the three most common measurements of solar radiation: global horizontal, direct normal and diffuse horizontal irradiance. It covers the United States and a growing subset of...

U.S. Solar Siting Regulation and Zoning Ordinances

Post, September 29, 2026 • (National Laboratory of the Rockies) A machine readable collection of documented solar siting ordinances at the state and local (e.g., county, township) level throughout the United States. The data were compiled based on a locality-by-locality review zoning ordinances after completing an initial review of scholarly legal articles. The citations for...

United States Utility-Scale PV Supply Curves 2023

Post, September 29, 2026 • (National Laboratory of the Rockies) This data packet contains supply curves, hourly generation profiles, and a composite siting exclusion TIFF for utility-scale PV across the contiguous United States. The supply curves offer comprehensive metrics such as capacity (MW), generation (MWh), levelized cost of energy (LCOE), levelized cost of transmission (LCOT),...
