Results are based on site screening criteria adapted from National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) criteria and GIS data provided by NREL and EPA. This map and its associated data are intended to provide a general understanding of the renewable energy potential of EPA tracked sites; additional site specific analysis is required to determine the actual energy generation potential of EPA tracked sites.
