Greetings!
As the Institute for Energy Efficiency celebrates its second successful year this month, exciting news keeps pouring in and shows no signs of slowing down. Hot off the press, Google awarded a two year, $1 Million grant to a team led by the Institute's Computing Solutions Group Head Fred Chong for research on saving power in data centers.
Greetings!
The start of the new academic year is just around the corner and we are excited to deliver another year of focused research, education and outreach activities centered on new technologies for energy efficiency. The Institute continues to grow rapidly with the launch of a new $20M research center, the Center on Materials for Energy Efficiency Applications (CMEEA), funded by the Department of Energy.
