The IRAP
The Integrated Resource and Activation Plan (IRAP), now wrapping up, comprehensively studies the technical and financial options available to UC Berkeley and sets the campus up to move into design and initial construction. Integrated Resource and Activation Plan activities have included technical analysis on the energy solutions, infrastructure siting options, financial strategies, legal and environmental consultation, and stakeholder engagement. This effort includes engagement with campus government relations, the research enterprise, donor services, faculty experts and advisors to government and industry partners, and the UC Office of the President.
Objectives considered in the study
The Integrated Resource & Activation Plan will be published soon.

Funding the IRAP
Three generous donors keen on implementing deep and transformational carbon reduction solutions have funded the first phases of this planning effort. The campus is currently seeking more donor partners and other resources to move this to the finish line.
