ENR Award of Excellence winner Jeffrey Baker’s pet project—the ultra-green, ultra-affordable Research Support Facility (RSF) at the Dept. of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden, Colo.—is but a tiny example of the work funded through DOE’s Office of Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency.
EERE’s overarching mission is to push the needle forward on energy efficiency and renewable energies, through research and development of solar energy, wind, biomass, water, hydrogen and fuel cell technologies, and, also, building technologies.
