Buildings account for 40% of total U.S. energy consumptionwindows make up about 10% of that. Berkeley Lab researchers are installing energy-saving, thin-glass triple-pane windows in low-income CA communities. https://bit.ly/38oGaHx #energyefficiency #buildings

The U.S. Department of Energy Advanced Manufacturing Office congratulates the Tennessee Valley Authority for attaining #50001Ready recognition at its Magnolia Combined Cycle Plant in Benton County, MS. Learn how the TVA leveraged support from DOE’s Industrial Assessment Center program and Tennessee Tech University to save approximately 18 gigawatt hours of #energy and nearly $1.2 million cumulatively since May 2018with no capital investment! https://bit.ly/2UtMPdH cc: Berkeley Lab
