The NRDC recently launched a new mapping tool called “Renewable Energy for America” that features a broad look at both existing and proposed clean energy facilities (wind, ethanol, and biodigester) across the country.

The mapping also shows - county by county - which areas in the US have the most potential for certain types of energy development. To see the map, visit https://www .nrdc.org/energy/renewables/default.asp.


reegle also released a searchable map feature that forms the new heart of www.reegle.info, a specialist search engine for renewable energy and energy efficiency.

Users can click on a specific location and get the latest events, news, and a sampling of green energy development projects in that area. There is also a catalogue of stakeholders and an energy- oriented profile of the relevant country, including up-to-date statistics and information on local green energy policies and regulations. Visit http://www.reegle.info/map/ to see the new reegle map.


UPDATE: Another great map, this time from NPR.

"Vizualizing the Grid" is a layered map of the U.S. electric grid. Included are transmission lines, power plants, solar and wind installations, state electricity profiles, and proposed expansions of grid infrastructure.
