Cambium
Cambium is an NREL data set and tool that offers hour-by-hour projections of marginal emissions and electricity costs across U.S. regions under multiple future scenarios. The tool combines technology cost assumptions, policy contexts, and generation mix trajectories to produce data that inform life-cycle analyses, policy evaluation, and investment decisions. Cambium is used by researchers, utilities, and policymakers to understand long-term impacts of energy technology trends.
