The new Cambium tool from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory predicts future hourly grid data. The map (upper left) shows how much onshore wind is projected to be installed in each state by 2050. On the upper right are projections for how the national grid will evolve by 2050, with the yellow bars showing an large uptick in solar power. The other charts show how marginal carbon emission rates are likely to vary over each day and each year (bottom left) and hourly data on what generation types are projected to generate at different times (bottom right).
