At the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, researchers are working on innovative energy technologies.
From washing machines and ovens to microwaves and fridges, today's homes are packed with appliances and devices that have become crucial to modern living.
The Systems Performance Laboratory, which is located in the NREL's Energy Systems Integration Facility, connects appliances, homes and even communities to what the NREL describes as an"end-to-end energy ecosystem." "And then we have... the control layer that would go on top of that, so individual controllers at local devices that we can use to make smart decisions about how to dispatch and use those loads. But then we also have all the infrastructure all the way up to the grid."
Lundstrom explained that researchers in the lab were able to take ideas on how to control devices or help improve the grid to reality quickly.
