Thank you to Ryan Harty for serving as an Executive Instructor in our #SustainableEnergy Industry Immersion course! He challenged students with a bold real-world case on Honda’s sustainability and clean energy efforts, offering valuable insights into corporate decarbonization. tinyurl.com/2x6sctav

We spend 90% of our time indoors, where #IndoorAirQuality affects our health every day. Dust, allergens and airborne illnesses build up, but a simple, affordable DIY solution — co-designed by @corsiaq.bsky.social — can help. See how to make one at youtu.be/1aMOtwcmvpo

Replacing industrial boilers with heat pumps can reduce dangerous air pollution. Our research featured in @canarymedia.com 🔽

Congrats to Energy Graduate Group PhD student Pablo Busch and his co-authors for winning the 2024 Most Downloaded Paper Award from Resources, Conservation & Recycling! Their work on cement and concrete policy is shaping decarbonization efforts. Read the paper at www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Huge thanks to SCE's Katie Sloan for bringing her expertise to our #SustainableEnergy Industry Immersion! Her insights on building electrification, decarb, and customer programs challenged our students with real-world problems, shaping the next generation of energy leaders. tinyurl.com/2x6sctav

Researchers from the Western Cooling Efficiency Center and across UC Davis are working to improve indoor air quality through smarter HVAC systems, air filtration, ventilation strategies and better building design. Their work makes schools, offices and public spaces healthier and more resilient. #IAQ
