Currently, Institute publications collectively receive over 1,300 citations a year. Since 1997, Energy Institute researchers have published over 350 articles that have been cited over 5,400 times. This drastic increase in publications corresponds with the continued rise in research taking place at the Institute as more faculty, researchers, and students come onboard.
