Energy quantifies the ability of a person, animal, machine or system to do useful work.</p><p>In practical terms, energy powers our vehicles and factories, heats our homes and office buildings, drives our economy and gives us a high standard of living. Energy technologies are crucial building blocks of our security and our prosperity.</p><h2 class="nist-block__title">What is NIST’s role?</h2><p>Every energy technology, from batteries to solar panels to gas pipelines, relies on accurate measurements and standards.
