The '''Energy Systems Integration Facility''' (ESIF), launched in September 2013 by the Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), is a 182,500-square-foot research hub that has supported over 170 projects with 85 partners in 2024 alone, testing technologies like self-healing grids and grid-forming inverters. Built with a $135 million investment, ESIF features 15 advanced laboratories and the world’s most energy-efficient high-performance computing (HPC) data center, boasting a power usage effectiveness (PUE) of 1.06, recognized as Lab of the Year by R&D Magazine in 2014.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.nrel.gov/esif/ |title=Energy Systems Integration Facility |publisher=National Renewable Energy Laboratory}}</ref> Recent updates include the 2024 opening of the Energy Security and Resilience Laboratory and a third-generation supercomputer, reinforcing its role in DOE’s clean energy transition efforts. | The '''Energy Systems Integration Facility''' (ESIF), launched in September 2013 by the Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) at the [[National Renewable Energy Laboratory]] (NREL), is a 182,500-square-foot research hub that has supported over 170 projects with 85 partners in 2024 alone, testing technologies like self-healing grids and grid-forming inverters. | ||
