FY21 NREL Wind Energy Accomplishments and Mid Year Performance Report

This report takes stock of the research NREL conducted on behalf of DOE’s Wind Energy Technologies Office (WETO), other funding and research partners, and the people of the United States during the first half of FY21 (between Oct. 1, 2020 and March 30, 2021). While diverse, all of these efforts shared a common goal to accelerate the deployment of wind energy technologies by helping to improve wind power performance, lower costs, and reduce market barriers to create a more sustainable, secure, and resilient power grid and a cleaner energy future.
