Envirofacts Warehouse: This Envirofacts Warehouse, created by The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), provides the public with direct access to the wealth of information contained in its databases.
Program on Energy & Sustainable Development, Stanford University: This interdisciplinary program, initiated in 2001 with core funding from EPRI, draws upon worldwide experts from the fields of political science, law, and economics to inform climate policymaking and to investigate the connections among energy supply and use, electrification, and sustainable development.

EPRI Websites

2010 Portfolio: Description of the collaborative-funded research programs, projects, and products proposed for the upcoming year.
Advanced Nuclear Technology: Siting, licensing, development and deployment of new nuclear power plants are challenged by a host of technological, economic and regulatory concerns. Mitigating these concerns is critical to maintaining momentum along the nuclear development cycle.
ARIES: Aerosol Research and Inhalation Epidemiology Study: ARIES is a large ($9 million) air pollution epidemiology study being carried out in Atlanta, Georgia. It is ground-breaking in its extensive air quality characterization and depth and breadth of accompanying health studies. The objective of ARIES is to investigate associations between specific air quality parameters and human health so that we may better understand the causative components in the air pollution mixture.
Electric Transportation: The EPRI Electric Transportation program helps energy companies increase electricity sales, promote economic development and customer retention, improve customer satisfaction, and contribute to a cleaner environment by accelerating market penetration of electric-drive vehicles
Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF) Research: Access accurate, objective information on the question of whether electric and magnetic fields (EMF) associated with electricity can cause biological changes or affect health.
Energy Efficiency Initiative: Today's utilities must help customers manage energy costs while updating aging infrastructure to meet increasing demand - all with minimal environmental impacts. Many excellent programs are in place to address these imperatives, however, more can be done. Infrastructure, analytics, and end-use technology are key areas of focus
Global Climate: EPRI climate change programs provide decisionmakers with analysis and information regarding the potential costs and benefits of domestic and international global climate policy proposals.
Intelligrid: The vision of an intelligent grid (or IntelliGrid) is the vision for the electric delivery system of the future. Taken as a whole, reaching this vision will yield unprecedented benefits for the industry—utility, consumers and society will all see rewards through increased reliability, reduced O&M costs, avoidance of new capacity, and increased customer satisfaction.
MyPQ – Program 1 Power Quality: EPRI's Power Quality (PQ) Knowledge program provides information and resource tools needed to manage power quality in a competitive environment, and to understand and solve vexing power quality problems. The program offers a comprehensive collection of unbiased and actionable technical and informational publications and products, educational forums, technical support, and Web-based services to enable electric power service providers to more cost effectively and efficiently deal with today's power quality issues, planning, management, mitigation, and prevention. Aggressive application of these tools and resources will enable profound improvements in the efficiency of solving Power Quality related problems and commensurate reductions in their cost, and increase the profitability of electric utilities by enabling uninterrupted operating of high-value end users with sensitive digital loads.
Ocean Energy: “Ocean energy” is a term used to describe all forms of renewable energy derived from the sea including wave energy, tidal energy, ocean current energy, offshore wind, salinity gradient energy and ocean thermal gradient energy.
RemotePQ: This monitoring service provides web-based, continuous remote monitoring and analysis of your facility's power quality and energy usage. This online service simplifies your power management efforts so you can reduce your company's costs and downtime.
Solar Electric Interest Group (SEIG): The Solar Electric Interest Group (SEIG) provides a forum for participants to exchange information on all solar electric technologies, applications, and market developments. Examples of expected interest group information and activities include the role of solar energy in Renewable Portfolio Standards and related compliance strategies, the potential for utility development of solar resources on both sides of the meter, and the use of portfolio planning and analysis tools. In addition, SEIG members will learn about ongoing research relative to solar electric systems and will have an opportunity to advise and to participate in EPRI R&D activities.
SEMI F47 Testing: EPRI has unparalleled knowledge and experience to help you pass SEMI F47. We have tested, consulted, and performed power quality audits on hundreds of semiconductor tools since 1997. This site can assist you with your goals.
