The National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) has released the call for FY 26 requests for computing on Kestrel, NREL's 3rd generation supercomputer. Research and development projects that are funded by EERE Offices as well as NREL projects funded by a non-EERE source are eligible to apply for computing resources for the FY 26 allocation period of performance, which runs Oct. 1, 2025, through Sept. 30, 2026.

January 2025 HPC newsletter.

Last year, we launched a new effort to engage more students in computing and to amplify how computing is used for EERE work. Again, this year, we’re inviting students to get involved with Kestrel for FY25. Undergraduate and graduate students from any U.S. college or university can apply for time on Kestrel for their EERE mission-related research project.
