Energy efficiency investments and their resulting energy savings create financial benefits shared throughout the Midwest region. This free summit will focus on the ways energy efficiency advocates develop sound policy to drive regional economic and job growth.

We will hear from a diverse set of advocacy and policymaker perspectives on the value of contractor and business-led advocacy, the economic impact of energy efficiency and how we leverage our collective efforts to inform and shape future EE policy in the Midwest.

Hosted by: Alderman James Cappleman

In the City of Chicago, residents are looking to step up by enacting good energy policy and taking actions in buildings where they live, work, and play. This workshop will present information on energy efficiency and renewable energy policy and will also give tips for Chicago residents and businesses to reduce energy and incorporate renewables, saving money and reducing air pollution. Tips and information will be most relevant to condo and apartment owners, but all are welcome to attend!

The focus of the discussion will be on utility perspectives on federal and state energy policy, demand response and load management, and technical reference manuals.
