New Hoosier Energy Consortium Formed
Published Friday, October 31, 2008 at 04:49 AM
IU Bloomington will participate in the consortium primarily through its new Center for Research in Energy and the Environment, which focuses on IU's strengths in environmental sciences and public policy. At Purdue, the Center for Research in Energy Systems and Policy will lead the effort, focusing on Purdue's strengths in engineering and technology with an economic analysis component. And at IUPUI, the consortium's primary participant will be the Richard G. Lugar Center for Renewable Energy.
Purdue’s Wally Tyner says - the consortium will help researchers at all three institutions move from discipline-specific approaches to address energy problems from a more comprehensive energy-systems perspective. Their work will bring together scientists and economists working on topics related to carbon sequestration, climate change and other environmental issues. One example is technical and economic research related to electric vehicles, battery technology and electricity pricing
