Spark Northwest, a regional partner in the Energy Transitions Initiative Partnership Project (#ETIPP), brought together members of the Makah, Nooksack, and Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribes to learn about #SolarEnergy. Trainings are just one of the avenues ETIPP—a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) technical assistance program managed by NREL—uses to help build capacity within the communities as they work toward self-defined energy goals. Check out our YouTube channel ➡️ https://bit.ly/4fdjiNb ⬅️ to learn how regional partner organizations like Spark Northwest are helping Tribes and other communities across the United States explore their options for more resilient energy futures through ETIPP.

Our latest podcast episode is full of exciting news in the field of #RenewableEnergy! This week, Nataleah fills in to bring us encouraging updates from the volunteers of NREL. Thanks to our partnership with GRID Alternatives Colorado, our researchers had the opportunity to step out of the labs and into the lives of community members to install free solar energy systems for income-qualified families. But that’s not all! Discover how we’re extending renewable energy solutions to the South Pole. Our recent study with Argonne National Laboratory explores integrating solar modules, wind turbines, and battery storage to power Antarctic research stations, reducing diesel consumption and energy costs. Tune in to explore these discoveries and more in our biweekly podcast, Transforming Energy ➡️ https://bit.ly/3q2M0M5 #NRELPodcast #Science #Sustainability
