The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering a grant through its STAR program for research on understanding the environmental impacts and behavioral drivers of deep decarbonization in the U.S. The research aims to provide insights into the impacts of decarbonizing electricity generation, electrifying end uses, adopting renewable fuels, and enhancing energy efficiency, as well as understanding the factors influencing energy consumption decisions at individual, business, and community levels. Applications are sought to contribute to advancing national and international climate change mitigation objectives and reducing the health, environmental, and economic risks of climate change. Closing date: Feb 10, 2017.

Description: | The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as part of its Science to Achieve Results (STAR) program, is seeking applications proposing research that will contribute to an improved ability to understand and anticipate the public health and environmental impacts and behavioral drivers of significant changes in energy production and consumption in the United States, particularly those changes associated with advancing toward the deep decarbonization necessary to achieve national and international climate change mitigation objectives and avoid the most significant health, environmental, and economic impacts of climate change. The proposed research is intended to contribute to the development of new insights and predictive tools related to the multimedia, life-cycle impacts of the decarbonization of electricity generation; the electrification of end uses; the adoption of low-carbon emitting, renewable fuels; and the adoption of energy efficiency measures. The proposed research is also intended to contribute to an improved understanding of the drivers of individual, firm (i.e. business), and community decisions that affect energy consumption patterns, including decisions about the adoption of new technologies and energy efficiency measures |
