Dr. Bill Morrow +Dr. Morrow is a Senior Scientific Engineering Associate at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) working in the Analysis Group under the Lab’s Carbon Cycle 2.0 initiative.  As part of the Analysis Group, Dr. Morrow is developing new methodologies for spatially and temporally dynamic energy systems modeling, life-cycle-analysis, and forecasting to enhance climate-change related technology research at LBNL.  Dr. Morrow is also working within the International Energy Studies Group at LBNL to develop detailed energy efficiency and greenhouse gas abatement supply curves for several key large energy intensive industrial sectors in China, India, and the U.S.  At E3, Dr. Morrow helped model and co-authored E3’s California 2050 future energy scenarios report, worked within E3’s long-distance transmission line and renewable energy development practice area, support electric utility client’s regulatory analysis and applications, and helped develop E3’s WECC-wide long-term carbon emission forecasting methodology and estimates of potential effects that a low-carbon emissions future could have on electricity generation development.  Dr. Morrow did a post-doc at the U.S. DOE’s National Energy Technology Laboratory where he developed a biomass allocation model for estimating the benefits and costs of alternative uses of scarce biomass resources.  This work built upon his bioenergy infrastructure research at Carnegie Mellon University where he holds a Ph.D. in civil and environmental engineering.  Dr. Morrow is a graduate from Georgia Tech in mechanical engineering and has eight years of industrial process design experience and a mechanical engineering professional engineering license.  Dr. Morrow is also an avid bike enthusiast and works with group of San Francisco based custom bamboo bike builders.
