The Heat Island Group at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory works to cool buildings, cities, and the planet by making roofs, pavements, and cars cooler in the sun. Increasing the solar reflectance of a car’s shell keeps it cooler when parked in the sun. This permits the use of a smaller air conditioner that draws less power and improves the vehicle’s fuel economy. High solar reflectance can cool pavements, mitigating the summer urban heat island effect by reducing the flow of heat from pavement to air.

Overview | HEATISLAND

https://heatisland.lbl.gov/coolscience

On a sunny summer afternoon, urban air can be 1-3 C (2-5 F) warmer than nearby rural air. The elevated air temperatures associated with this summer urban heat island (UHI) make air conditioners work harder to keep buildings cool, which can strain the power grid. They also accelerate the formation of smog, degrading air quality. (Image courtesy of Heat Island Group, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory). Roofs and pavements comprise over 60% of urban surfaces in some U.S. cities. UHI) effect. Other c...

Economic Comparison of White, Green, and Black Flat Roofs in the United States. Economic Comparison of White, Green, and Black Flat Roofs in the United States. Benjamin H. Mandel. And Arthur H. Rosenfeld. Life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA). And green roofs have a negative NS of $71/m. Despite lasting at least twice as long as white or black roofs, green roofs cannot compensate for their installation cost premium. However, while the 50-year NS of white roofs compared to green roofs is $96/m.

Berkeley Lab Heat Island Group. Warm Roofs, Hot Cities Mapping Roof Albedo in San Francisco, California. This map displays roof albedo (solar reflectance) estimates from Berkeley Lab for San Francisco. Albedo is the fraction of sunlight that is reflected from a surface. It is measured on a scale of 0 to 1, where higher numbers indicate greater reflectance. Reflective roofs are more energy efficient and cooler inside and out. In San Francisco, the average roof albedo is about 0.18. A sample cool roof.
