Introducing LEEEP, a new research center on campus

August 31, 2026

Initiated by ARE Associate Professor Joe Shapiro, the Lab for Environmental and Energy Economics (LEEEP) is a group of economists at UC Berkeley that seeks to improve understanding and policy on environmental and energy issues. The lab's affiliates publish research; teach and advise graduate and undergraduate students; host seminars and conferences; and translate and apply research findings for policymakers, businesses, and nonprofits.

Learn more about the research and teaching of faculty and postdoc affiliates, as well as upcoming events, on the new LEEEP website
