Workshops
Residential Thermal Energy Storage for Load Shifting: A Collaborative Ideation Session on Utility Strategies to Deliver Value to Customers and the Grid | Tuesday, October 7 (3:00-5:00pm)
Thermal energy storage (TES) can enable load shifting of heating and cooling loads in buildings, helping utilities free up peak electricity for strategic priorities such as manufacturing or data centers, while helping customers save on their electric bills. We will summarize the latest research on the state of utility TES deployment, then bring together the expertise of the attendees to identify possible improvements to programs, rates, incentives, or other solutions that can help customers and utilities capture the benefits of residential TES.
*Available as an add-on to registration. Cost: $50
Closing the Equity Gap in Utility Energy Efficiency Programming | Tuesday, October 7 (3:00-5:00pm)
Research suggests that low- to moderate-income (LMI) customers are often underserved by most utility energy efficiency programs, despite having the greatest financial need. This workshop will convene utility program administrators and implementers to share best practices and case studies related to scaling low-income energy efficiency programs effectively. ACEEE moderators will present short introductions to a range of challenges in LMI programming, highlight utility successes, and facilitate breakout discussions. All workshop participants will receive a written summary of findings and key themes following the event.

IEPEC & EER
For the first time, ACEEE and IEPEC are collaborating to bring you back-to-back conferences at the same venue—providing opportunities for broader networking, sharing insights with a wider audience, and gathering information from more experts in the field.
The International Energy Program Evaluation Conference (IEPEC) is a biennial professional conference for energy program implementers, evaluators of those programs, local, state, national and international representatives, and academic researchers involved in evaluation. The purpose of the conference is to provide a forum for the presentation, as well as a critique and discussion of objective evaluations of energy programs.
IEPEC will be held from Monday, October 6, through Wednesday, October 8, overlapping with the start of the EER conference on Tuesday, October 7.
★ Special Offer: Register for EER and receive $100 off your IEPEC registration!
