Tool Tutorial

NASA POWER offers solar and meteorological data sets for support of renewable energy, building energy efficiency, and agricultural needs.

This session provides a brief review of the NASA Prediction of Worldwide renewable Energy Resources (POWER) Project web services, tools, and key partnerships that facilitate usage of NASA Earth Observations (EOs) data. Then, illustrative case studies of how POWER data are used for applications in solar energy, wind energy, and energy efficiency will be discussed in depth.

NASA POWER offers solar and meteorological data sets for support of renewable energy, building energy efficiency, and agricultural needs.

This session presents an overview of the Earth Observations (EOs) data products available through the NASA Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resources (POWER) Project to support Renewable Energy and Building Energy Efficiency Applications, including how the EOs data products are produced and how they can be accessed through the POWER web services and tools.

This session presents various real-world, illustrative examples of the ways in which NASA Earth Observations (EOs )may be combined with other datasets to better understand the impact of extreme events, such as wildfires and hurricanes, on energy infrastructure. Additional examples focused on the application of NASA EOs for monitoring renewable resources for energy management will also be presented.

This session includes an introduction to the energy sector and climate resilience, including how NASA Earth Observations (EOs) can support efforts in improving climate resilience and sustainability for improved energy management. A demonstration of an ESRI StoryMap for Electric Utilities will be offered to explore various energy-specific data parameters and variables.
