This page includes a recording, presentation slides, and transcript from EPA’s February 22, 2018 webcast, "The Writing’s on the Wall: Recent Cool Wall Research and Measures."
Have you heard about cool walls? Lawrence Berkeley National Lab is working to understand how cool wall technologies can mitigate heat islands and provide a range of other benefits at the same time. This 90-minute webcast explored cool walls, including cool wall technologies, energy and other co-benefits, and Hawaii's experience adopting cool walls into their state code.
