Samantha Bench Reese is a member of the Strategic Energy Analysis Center and works with the Clean Energy Manufacturing Analysis Center (CEMAC) under the Joint Institute for Strategic Energy Analysis. She collaborates with researchers to understand technoeconomic tradeoffs of early stage research. As an analyst, she helps put research problems in context and analytically shows technology potential through supply-chain analysis, trade-flow mapping, market research, and building bottoms-up cost models.
Bench Reese's background is in mechanical and electrical engineering. Prior to joining NREL, she helped transition products from R&D to volume manufacturing overseas, in addition to other manufacturing- and quality-focused efforts.
