This ETCC meeting convened experts from industry, research centers, utility and government entities working to advance energy efficiency in the commercial sector. Featured speakers discussed future policy initiatives that will impact the commercial sector, similarities and contrasts between different utilities opportunities and challenges in the sector and how partnerships are accelerating the advancement and adoption of innovative technologies and programs. The afternoon session took the audience “beyond the project report” for an interactive discussion with the key players in an ongoing Emerging Technology SCE project including the customer, contractor and upstream program implementer.
[OPTIONAL FOR IN-PERSON ATTENDEES] In person attendees were able to wrap-up the day with a tour of the SCE Technology Test Center from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
