On Wednesday, April 10, 2019 at 1:30 PM ET, under the auspices of the NASEO-NARUC Grid-Interactive Efficient Buildings (GEB) Working Group, NASEO will host a webinar to discuss grid challenges and opportunities and the capability of buildings to provide grid services.  The webinar will review recent studies and field data, offer a grid needs framework, discuss the complementarity of energy efficiency with demand response, and cover the status of demand response automation technology, metrics, and related efforts.

The NASEO-NARUC GEB Working Group is supported by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Building Technologies Office and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) to engage State Energy Officials and state utility regulators to explore and discuss the status, technological trends, opportunities, and challenges of grid-interactive building integration.  This initiative seeks to help interested states to develop RD&D, policy, programmatic, and regulatory activities for advancing grid-interactive opportunities to meet their states’ objectives.

Webinar speakers will include:

• Rodney Sobin, Senior Program Director, NASEO
• Monica Neukomm, Senior Advisor, Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of Energy
• Mary Ann Piette, Scientific Division Director, Lawrence Berkeley National Lab
