Awards

2014 Berkeley Lab Prize: Lifetime Achievement Award: Societal Impact -  September 4th 2014

Since starting his career at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in 1978, Mark Levine has been the key driving force behind the development of the Lab's world-class energy efficiency analysis activities. LBNL's energy analysis program was the world's first significant program focused on energy efficiency analysis with a broad scope. The program pioneered a new field of research and associated analysis methods now used around the world.

These energy efficiency research and analysis efforts have had large positive societal impacts by improving energy efficiency, reducing energy use, reducing costs paid by consumers for energy services, reducing local pollutants emitted by burning most energy resources, and mitigating emissions that cause climate change.

2009 Appreciation Prize of the Architectural Institute of Japan -  June 4th 2009

For his "series of accomplishments on outstanding research works, promotion of energy projects and dissemination of energy efficiency technologies in the field of architecture for global warming protection."

Federation of American Scientists Public Service Award -  August 29th 2008

For his extraordinary contributions to energy efficiency research and his work helping China build a strong energy program.

Obayashi Prize -  January 25th 2008

For his "many years of research on the global environment and global warming," and for "impressive achievements in research related to energy-efficient construction technologies, technology for control of indoor air pollution, and clean energy technologies."

2007 Nobel Peace Prize -  October 30th 2007

Scientists at the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory were important contributors to the research on global climate change that has won this year's Nobel Peace Prize.

The 2007 Peace Prize was awarded jointly to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and to former Vice President Al Gore, Jr., "for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change."

William Collins and Inez Fung of the Earth Sciences Division (ESD), and Mark Levine, Surabi Menon, Evan Mills, Lynn Price, Jayant Sathaye, and Ernst Worrell of the Environmental Energy Technologies Division (EETD) are among current members of Berkeley Lab who were leading authors of this year's IPCC working group reports.
