The National Renewable Energy Laboratory’s high-performance computing , efficient data center operations, and powerful visualizations have left an indelible stamp on clean energy innovation. As the U.S. Department of Energy’s only national laboratory solely dedicated to energy efficiency and renewable energy research, NREL has highlighted the impactful contributions of advanced computing in its Advanced Computing Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2023.
While the NREL operations team spent much of FY 2023 preparing for, installing, and bringing the new Kestrel HPC system online, NREL’s HPC powered over 300 renewable energy projects from every technology office within DOE’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. “Computational approaches are critical to the energy transition,” said Ray Grout, center director of NREL’s Computational Science Center. “HPC enables the energy community to make critical advances in core science as well as translate scientific discoveries into practical solutions. With Kestrel ready to provide greater computing power, the future of renewable energy is stronger than ever.
Kestrel—installed and tested in the laboratory’s Energy Systems Integration Facility data center—will provide more than five times the computing power of its predecessor, Eagle, when fully configured. Kestrel’s heterogeneous architecture—which includes both CPU-only and GPU-accelerated nodes—is designed to bring a much greater GPU capacity to workloads compared to Eagle, enabling rapidly advancing applications in artificial intelligence and expanding research in new directions for computing.
The mission of the U.S. Energy Department is to ensure America’s security and prosperity by addressing its energy, environmental and nuclear challenges through transformative science and technology solutions. Learn more.
