National Renewable Energy Laboratory Releases 2017 Annual Technology Baseline

Aug. 24, 2017

Researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory updated a key source of reliable electricity generation technology cost and performance data used to support and inform electric sector analysis in the United States: the Annual Technology Baseline (ATB). The ATB synthesizes current and projected data into a highly accessible and widely referenced resource for energy analysts. The ATB is supported by DOE’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy and includes information for land-based wind and offshore wind.
