When NREL's Energy Systems Integration Facility (ESIF) came to life in September 2013, it had already made history. An architectural marvel, the ESIF's design matched the science it would feature: domain-crossing, data-infused, radically efficient energy-system science. It became a living laboratory where research, the building, and its equipment coevolve.

Over the past 10 years, the ESIF has incubated pivotal clean energy technologies, and its staff have helped communities and countries to reach record amounts of renewable energy and companies to explore the innovative edges of energy integration. To celebrate some of the ESIF's most lasting achievements over the past decade, this story highlights 10 advancements that represent its full uniqueness, foresight, and continued importance.
