The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Colorado advances energy efficiency and renewable technologies using high-performance computing (HPC). To meet growing research demands, NREL is transitioning from its Eagle supercomputer to Kestrel, a 44 petaFLOPS system powered by 4th Gen Intel® Xeon® processors, offering 5.5x more computing capacity and 2.2x better energy efficiency. Kestrel will support projects in materials science, grid simulation, and machine learning, enabling innovations in wind, solar, hydrogen, and battery technologies. Powered by renewable energy and using liquid cooling, Kestrel positions NREL at the forefront of sustainable, cutting-edge energy research.
