Stellar Performance: Ensuring Mission Sustainment for NASA Centers

NASA’s Office of Strategic Infrastructure has requested the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to conduct resilience assessments for NASA Centers in order to identify ways NASA can ensure mission sustainment and continuity of operations during extreme climate, weather, and human events. Combining climate hazard analysis from NASA's Climate Adaptation Science Investigators (CASI) and vulnerability assessments by NREL researchers, NREL is identifying mitigation investments to ensure uninterrupted operations of NASA Centers during disruptive events. This presentation will discuss how insights from CASI's climate analysis helps NREL identify risks to mission sustainment and which mitigations can ensure continuity of operations.
