Koomey

Jonathan Koomey led the Energy End-Use Forecasting group at Berkeley Lab, which analyzes markets for efficient products and technologies for improving the energy and environmental aspects of those products. He is also a consulting professor at Stanford University. Koomey co-authored Winning the Oil Endgame with colleagues from the Rocky Mountain Institute. He recently spoke with reporter David Zaks with World Changing, an online publication that seeks to improve the world by bringing together "tools, models, and ideas for building a better future."

• Building 54 stop (Cafeteria) will be the new hub
• No transfers needed from off-site to most on-site building areas (Buildings 48,50,51 54,62,65,66,67,70,72,74,84 areas)
• Four buses will be routed through the Lab, to campus and to BART (two in each direction) most times
• One on-site shuttle will service Building 25, 90, 71, 58, 69, 77 areas

Before the plan is implemented, input is being sought from employees who use the shuttle bus service, which will provide the Lab's committee members and senior management with the feedback needed to make final decisions about the route changes. Go here for more details on the proposed changes and to submit comments.
