Scientists have developed an all-season smart-roof coating that keeps homes warm during the winter and cool during the summer without consuming natural

Scientists developed a smart roof coating that keeps buildings warm when it's cold outside and cool when it's hot, reducing energy costs all year round.

Parts of the Mountain West could be nearly snowless for years at a time in just a few decades.

Scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and UMass Amherst created the first aqueous robots that can run without electricity.

Research from the Berkeley Lab showed that an increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has led plants to photosynthesize more.

A California wind farm which was built in a state park in the 1980s will be rebuilt, increasing its generation capacity by more than eight times over and adding a large-scale battery storage facility.

A paper by Berkeley Lab scientists states that geothermal brines in the Salton Sea are expected to be a major source of domestic lithium for the United States.

New research from Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley shows that plants are photosynthesizing more in response to more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Because

Dramatic cost reductions over the last decade in battery storage, wind and solar energy position India to leapfrog to a more sustainable system for delivering affordable and reliable power to serve near a doubling in electricity demand by 2030, ...
