EPA Tracked Sites with Utility Scale Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) Energy Generation Potential kWh/m2/day EPA Tracked Sites Solar Resource Resource Potential O Abandoned Mine Land Brownfield RCRA Federal Superfund Non-Federal Superfund Stirling Engine System Screening Criteria Direct normal solar resource availability of greater than 6 kWh/m2/day Distance to electric transmission lines of 10 miles or less Stirling engine system: property size of 40 acres or more Trough and power tower system: property size of 250 acres or more Distance to graded roads of 25 miles or less O Stirling Engine System and Trough and Power Tower System This map was developed by SRA International for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) OSWER Center for Program Analysis. 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.
