SBX Day 2 Opening Plenary: Innovations for an Electrified & Decarbonized Future

August 13, 2024 By SBC staff

Join us virtually for the Smart Buildings Exchange (SBX) 2024 Day 2 Opening Plenary: Innovations for an Electrified & Decarbonized Future on August 28th from 9:00 – 10:15 am PT.

2030 always seemed so far away. Not anymore. The pressure to meet energy and carbon performance targets is real and pressing. Are we innovating far enough and fast enough to ensure that these goals are met? This high-powered panel discussion will look at where we are with the pace of innovation – technology, construction, finance, and policy – and what more we need to do to go further faster. Poppy Storm (2050 Institute) will moderate the discussion between Allen Preger (Building Ventures), Celeste Tell (Epicycled), Lucas Toffoli (RMI), and Steve Ruby (McKinstry).

SBX Session Highlight: Grid-Interactive Efficient Buildings as a Utility Resource

July 1, 2024 By SBC staff

Rapidly reducing the carbon content of utility resources while maintaining resource adequacy and grid reliability is a challenge for electric utilities across the country. Programs for demand flexibility and particularly grid-interactive efficient buildings (GEBs) will be key to successfully integrating large amounts of renewable energy into the grid. This panel, featuring Albert Chiu (Pacific Gas & Electric Company), Jingjing Liu (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory), Mark Martinez (Southern California Edison), and Brittainy Pond (Puget Sound Energy), will discuss the efforts by a number of utility leaders across the United States in deploying demand flexibility/GEBs as a central strategy for their future.
