Research at Energy, Environment and Exposure Laboratory (EEEL) focuses on various aspects of energy, environment, and human exposure. Since the energy, environment, and human exposure are not independent, we aim to understand their complex interdependence. Some of the currently active research themes at EEEL are air quality in built environments, airborne transmission of pathogens such as coronavirus, green buildings, and reliability analysis of residential-scale solar energy systems.
