Evaluate Distributed Energy Technologies for Cost Savings and Resilience With REopt Lite

Katherine Anderson, Emma Elgqvist

Research output: NRELFact Sheet

Abstract

NREL's REopt Lite TM web tool evaluates the economics of grid connected photovoltaics (PV), wind, and battery storage at a site. It allows users to identify the system sizes and battery dispatch strategy that minimize a site's life cycle cost of energy, and it estimates the amount of time a PV, wind, battery, and diesel generator system can sustain the site's critical load during a grid outage.
