Power and Renewables
Rextag expands its electrical infrastructure dataset to include new and specific data layers related to Renewable Energy.
This new and expanded dataset will include thousands of new miles of electric transmission lines, hundreds of more substations and close to two thousand more renewable energy power generating facilities.
In addition to these expanded datasets, Rextag is also adding multiple new layers specific to the renewable market.

-
Biodiesel Plants
Locations and production capacities of Biodiesel plants. Biodiesel is a liquid fuel produced from renewable sources, such as vegetable oils and animal fats.
-
Biomass
Biomass is fuel that is developed from organic materials such as from forests, crops, and landfills. Layer shows different biomass resources available in the U.S. by counties.
-
Electric Service Territories
Electricity distribution service territories.
-
Electric Substations
Electric substations dataset as a part of the electric transmission grid includes the info on the Operator's Name, Owners, KVs, and other
-
Powerlines
Electricity transmission and major distribution lines
-
Energy Storage
Energy storage systems such as batteries, thermal storage, and flywheels, store electricity produced by generators or pulled directly from the grid, to redistribute the electricity at a later time.
-
Ethanol Biorefineries
Location, ownership, and production capacities of ethanol biorefineries. Ethanol is a renewable fuel that can be made from a variety of biomass and can be used as a blending agent with gasoline to increase octane and cut down carbon monoxide and other smog-causing emissions.
-
Geothermal Sites
Geothermal sites locations, temperatures, and more. Geothermal resources are reservoirs of hot water that exist at varying temperatures and depths below the Earth's surface which can be used in a variety of applications, including electricity generation, direct use, and heating and cooling.
-
Hydrogen Plants
Hydrogen producing plants. Hydrogen is a fuel with water being the only byproduct. It can be produced from a variety of domestic resources such as natural gas, nuclear power, or renewable power like biomass, solar, and wind.
-
Independent System Operators
Boundaries of the electric power Independent System Operators (ISO) set up by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)
-
Methane Landfills
Methane landfill gas can be captured, converted, and used as a renewable energy resource. A locational point with attribute information about the facility, including owner, status, type, capacity and more.
-
NERC Regions
Boundaries of the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Regions
-
Oilseed Plants
Oilseed producers with information about locations, owners, and statuses. Oilseeds are seeds in which oil can be extracted from and the seeds are processed to obtain oil for biodiesel/fuel production.
-
Power Plants
Power Plants and their capacities, owners, status and more.
-
Renewable Alt Filling Stations
Renewable alternative fueling locations including hydrogen, biodiesel, and electric stations across the U.S.
-
Wind Turbines
Locational points of individual turbines with information about owners, statuses and more.
