In this webinar, MEEA’s policy experts will dive into the state-by-state election results and what they mean for energy efficiency. You’ll learn what to expect from new administrations, and we’ll share our outreach strategy to encourage EE-friendly transitions.
Did you know that nearly 20% of the energy a household uses goes to water heating? But many utilities are missing out on serious energy savings by relying on frustrating and ineffectual consumer mail-in rebates.
In this webinar, A. O. Smith will show how utilities can transition to a model that’s up to 10x more effective: distributor midstream instant discounts. We’ll cover the size of the prize, the benefits of midstream programs, and implementation best practices for wholesale, retail and for low-income housing.
Over the last 15 years, Iowa has dramatically increased building efficiency through energy code advancements. One might assume this would make above-code savings more difficult to achieve, but over this period, commercial buildings have continued to average 30% savings above the energy code.
The cost-effectiveness tests used for energy efficiency programs are decades old and, in many cases, haven’t kept up with the energy policy goals of the states that use them. The National Standard Practice Manual (NSPM) is an attempt to bring cost-effectiveness testing up to date to meet modern needs.
In this webinar, we’ll get an inside look at why the State of Minnesota re-evaluated their tests and how they used the NSPM to envision a new, customized Minnesota Test.
Hennepin County, Minnesota is working to make it easier for mid to small size cities to pass energy benchmarking disclosure policies.

You'll learn directly from the county about their efforts and their successes.
