NREL in the Community
NREL's commitment to the community includes organized, public tours; stakeholder outreach; and charitable giving efforts.
Virtual Campus Tours
NREL is currently offering virtual tours, where participants will learn about our research and see how we are demonstrating clean energy technologies, reducing waste, and eliminating atmospheric pollution.
Tours led by NREL staff are available at no charge and are typically held the second Friday of each month from 10 to 11:30 a.m. To sign up, complete the virtual tour registration form.
