FEMP Screening Map
The FEMP Screening Map dataset provides geospatial layers that help federal agencies evaluate the suitability of sites for renewable energy projects. The dataset includes information on solar resource availability, wind speeds, land use, proximity to transmission lines, and environmental constraints. Agencies can use these layers to screen sites for feasibility studies and prioritize locations for further analysis. The data are provided as a downloadable ZIP file containing GIS files.
