In this week’s episode, your hosts dive into a few real-world applications of NREL’s research, including:

Boosting Energy Efficiency on the Front Lines of Wildfire Control: through a partnership with the U.S. Forest Service, NREL introduced solar power and battery storage solutions to wildfire basecamps, paving the way for quieter, cleaner, and more efficient firefighting support.
Decoding Zero-Emission Vehicle Costs: Now available for public use, NREL's T3CO tool helps owners of commercial vehicle fleets evaluate and transition to zero-emission vehicles with greater confidence, simplifying complex cost calculations to boost sustainable commercial transportation.
Simulating Real-World Energy Solutions with ARIES: From tackling grid challenges to conducting live cyberattack simulations, NREL's ARIES platform allows researchers to simulate complex real-world grid conditions, transforming the way researchers analyze renewable energy solutions.

This episode was hosted by Kerrin Jeromin and Taylor Mankle, written and produced by Allison Montroy, Hannah Halusker, and Kaitlyn Stottler, and edited by Taylor Mankle, Joe DelNero, and Brittany Falch. Graphics are by Brittnee Gayet. Our title music is written and performed by Ted Vaca and episode music by Chuck Kurnik, Jim Riley, and Mark Sanseverino of Drift BC.
