Development of the portal–in collaboration with Georgia Tech and the SETRI network–was recently recognized as part of the White House Electric Vehicle Acceleration Challenge

The Nicholas Institute for Energy, Environment & Sustainability at Duke University, in collaboration with the Georgia Tech Strategic Energy Institute, has launched an online hub that highlights timely opportunities and upcoming events related to transportation electrification in the Southeast. 

As more and more people move to metro Atlanta, we have somehow managed to reduce our carbon footprint in the state of Georgia. Severe Weather Team 2 Meteorologist Eboni Deon learned exactly how this is possible. She spoke with Regents Professor at Georgia Tech, Dr. Marilyn Brown, who said tracking the changes in greenhouse gas emissions helps to find where we are making progress and where improvements are needed to meet climate goals and reduce climate change.

Tracking Georgia’s progress toward net zero emissions is now easier and more convenient for local governments, researchers, and climate advocates with Drawdown Georgia By the Numbers, a detailed county-level update on greenhouse gas emissions sent directly to subscribers’ inboxes on a quarterly basis.

Georgia Tech scientists played a critical role in the technology that led to a major investment in solar power in Georgia, and prompted a visit to the state from the Vice President.

Vice President Kamala Harris went to the Qcells facility in Dalton on Thursday. There, she announced the largest investment in solar energy in the country’s history.

Qcells is now the largest producer of solar panels in the western hemisphere.

As it turns out, Georgia Tech plays a key role in it all.

Georgia's carbon footprint is shrinking — but our reliance on cars and big SUVs persists.

Georgia Tech says it is studying how to expand the Tech Square model to other parts of the state. The hope is to create a regional innovation hub, potentially spurred by new federal funding.

City sustainability chief Chandra Farley wants to boost an energy tracking program and tap federal funds to upgrade city properties
