Assessing the Potential for Renewable Energy on National Forest System Lands 1. Objective The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service’s (USFS) intent to identify the contribution that National Forest System (NFS) lands can make to increasing the production of domestic energy resources through solar and wind energy development is consistent with the provisions of the National Energy Policy. Such an exercise begins with an assessment of the solar and wind resource potential. This assessment has a two-part objective: 1. To assess the potential for solar and wind energy on NFS lands and 2. To identify National Forest and Grasslands units in the NFS that have the highest potential for development by industry of power production facilities based on solar and wind energy. This report provides information to the USFS, the public, and industry to focus interest in NFS lands for solar and wind energy development on those areas with high potential. 2. Scope This solar and wind resource assessment addresses National Forest and Grassland units in the United States, except Alaska. Alaska was not included because of the lack of transmission system data in Geographic Information System (GIS) format, a critical element used for screening high-potential areas for solar and wind energy development. The solar and wind energy sources and technologies addressed in this report include concentrating solar power (CSP), photovoltaics (PV), and wind. Included is a CD-ROM of the report in PDF format, releasable GIS data used in the analysis, PowerPoint files of all GIS maps for each solar and wind resource analyzed, and Excel files for all tables cited in this report containing lists of NFS Units with the highest potential for solar and wind energy (Tables 1a-1c, 2, C-1A – C, and C-2). 3. Background This USFS assessment of the potential for renewable-energy power-production facilities on NFS lands is consistent with the principal national policy objective to address access limitations to federal lands to increase solar and wind energy production from domestic solar and wind resources. The need for this assessment of the potential for solar and wind energy power production was also identified as an outcome of the National Conference on Opportunities to Expand Renewable Energy on Public Lands, hosted by the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in November 2001 in Washington, D.C. The conference was chaired by the Department of Interior (DOI) Secretary, Honorable Gale Norton, and the DOE Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, David Garman, representing Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham. Representatives from the U.S Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Department of Defense (DOD), the Council on Environmental Quality, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission also attended. Attendees heard testimony from 1
