Renewable Electricity Procurement Options Data

The Procurement Analysis Tool (PAT) was developed at NREL to help organizations explore renewable energy options that align with their goals. Users input facility data and answer goal-oriented questions. PAT analyzes this information to identify potential wind, solar, or storage resources and suitable procurement options (PPA, Green Tariffs) that align with their budget, location, and sustainability goals. For more information see the "Procurement Analysis Tool" resource below.

The Renewable Electricity Procurement Options Data (RE-POD) was an aggregated dataset meant to help local jurisdictions and utility customers within those jurisdictions understand the options that may be available to them to procure renewable electricity or renewable energy credits to meet energy goals. RE-POD has been discontinued and replaced with the PAT.

This data is part of a suite of state and local energy profile data available at the "State and Local Energy Profile Data Suite" link below and builds on Cities-LEAP energy modeling, available at the "EERE Cities-LEAP Page" link below. Examples of how to use the data to inform energy planning can be found at the "Example Uses" link below.

NREL（国家可再生能源实验室）研发了采购分析工具（PAT），旨在协助组织机构探索与其目标相契合的可再生能源选择。用户需输入设施数据并回答目标导向的问题。PAT通过分析这些信息，识别潜在的风力、太阳能或储能资源，以及与其预算、地理位置和可持续性目标相适宜的采购选项（如电力购买协议PPA、绿色电价），以供选择。更多信息请参阅下方的“采购分析工具”资源。

可再生能源采购选项数据集（RE-POD）是一个综合数据集，旨在帮助地方司法管辖区及其辖区内的公用事业客户了解他们可能采购可再生能源或可再生能源信用额度以满足能源目标的各种选项。RE-POD已停止使用，并由PAT所取代。

该数据是“州和地方能源概况数据集套件”的一部分，可通过下方的链接获取，并在“EERE Cities-LEAP页面”链接下构建于Cities-LEAP能源模型之上。如何使用这些数据来指导能源规划的示例可以在下方的“示例用途”链接中找到。
