These data can be accessed by anyone with an internet connection and span key datasets across the Earth system including satellite imagery, radar, weather models and observations, ocean databases, and climate data records. Since its inception, NODD has grown to provide public access to more than 24 PB of NOAA data and can support billions of requests and petabytes of access daily. Stakeholders routinely access more than 5 PB of NODD data every month. NODD continues to grow to support open petabyte-scale Earth system data science in the cloud by onboarding additional NOAA data and exploring performant data formats. Here, we document how this program works with a focus on provenance, key datasets, and use. We also highlight how to access these data with the goal of accelerating use of NOAA resources in the cloud.}, number={38}, journal={SCIENCE ADVANCES}, author={Willett, Denis S. and Brannock, Jonathan and Dissen, Jenny and Keown, Patrick and Szura, Katelyn and Brown, Otis B. and Simonson, Adrienne}, year={2023}, month={Sep} }

When: 14–15 June 2017 Where: Asheville, North Carolina T he U.S. Energy Information Administration forecast that nonhydroelectric renewables would rise, from 2% in 2005 to a total of 10% of electricity generated in 2018 (DOE 2004). Wind, solar, and hydropower are not only essential for meeting energy demand, they are also cost competitive with conventional generation (Lazard 2018). Calling renewables “a foregone conclusion,” industry representatives are raising the level of investment in efficient transmission lines and new systems of microgrids. Climate and environmental intelligence is providing essential information in this decision-making process, with the grid on the frontlines. The Climate Resilient Grid: A Forum on Energy, Climate, and the Grid convened thought leaders from industry, government, and academia to determine the use of environmental and climate data for meeting industry needs in both energy delivery and bringing renewables online for an integrated energy future.1 Utilities executives shared perspectives on their climate risks and vulnerabilities, use of climate data, the current state of their grid, and the future of renewables in their portfolio. Solution providers shared their use of environmental information in asset planning, resilience strategy, and load planning. Thought leaders discussed the critical use of renewables and the right mix of energy to build an adaptive infrastructure, while reducing carbon dioxide. In all, the thought leaders and energy executives noted the role of a changing climate and its corresponding data in energy delivery challenges, and in integrating renewables into the grid. Raising the level of renewables requires efficient transmission lines and new systems of microgrids, which in turn requires climate data, analytics, and environmental intelligence.
