Spotlight

As a Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Stanford University and a Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment, Mark Jacobson has focused his career on understanding air pollution and global warming in order to develop large-scale, clean, renewable energy solutions.

“I wanted to practice what I preach. So, it had to be all electric, no gas even coming in on the property, and also self-sustaining so that it would power itself 365 days a year.”
