Environmental Energy Technologies Division

Arun Majumdar, Director of EETD; Logos for the Environmental Energy Technologies Division, the Berkeley Lab, the University of California, and Department of Energy.

The mission of Berkeley Lab's Environmental Energy Technologies Division is to perform analysis, research and development leading to better energy technologies and reduction of adverse energy-related environmental impacts. Our work increases the efficiency of energy use, reduces its environmental effects, provides the nation with environmental benefits, and helps developing nations achieve similar goals through technical advice.

EETD carries out its work through the support of the U.S. Department of Energy (the Division's primary sponsor), other federal entities, state governments and the private sector. Our staff of 300 represents a diverse cross section of fields and skills, ranging from architecture, physics, and mechanical engineering to economics and public policy.

Many staff members have joint appointments at the University of California, Berkeley, and the Division draws on students and recent graduates from UC and other academic institutions for research assistants and postdoctoral appointments.
