City Energy: From Data to Decisions. Hutchinson, Minnesota: Evaluating Local Solar Energy Generation Potential

Research output: NRELFact Sheet

Abstract

The City of Hutchinson, Minnesota, partnered with the Energy Department and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to demonstrate how data and analysis can inform more strategic energy decisions. NREL based its analysis in part on the City Energy Profiles on the State and Local Energy Data (SLED) website (eere.energy.gov/sled). The profiles contain data compiled by SLED and the Cities Leading through Energy Analysis and Planning (Cities-LEAP) program. Cities across the country can follow the same approach and use data-driven analysis in their own energy planning.
