Description
This map allows users to explore results data associated with the ORB Study:
1. Existing and commercial renewable energy projects by SuperCREZ with point location of existing and commercial renewable energy projects. Existing projects are those that have come online and are currently generating electricity. Commercial projects are those that are still in development but have a Power Purchase Agreement with an electricity buyer.
2. Resource potential by SuperCREZ for wind, solar PV, CSP and geothermal
3. Selected resources by SuperCREZ under the 33% in-state generation scenario for wind, solar PV, CSP and geothermal
4. Selected resources by SuperCREZ under the 50% in-state generation scenario for wind, solar PV, and CSP
5. Supporting datasets: County boundaries, SuperCREZ boundaries, transmission lines and current land use.

For more information, please see the ORB Study Guide/Case Study.
