Clean Energy Connections presents Value of a Negawatt: Startups & the Energy Efficiency Boom

[Jaclyn Jablkowski]

Experts estimate that at least 85% of New York City's buildings will still be in use in 20 years. Our offices and homes, whichfor the most part consume huge amounts of electricity, are poorly insulated and have little incentive to change. The fastest, cheapest, and most effective way for New York to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions is by reducing the amount of energy that we consume. Innovation in technology and financing can help get us to scale, and with the hard work of the City's green codes task force and the support of the Greater, Greener Buildings Laws, real changes are taking place.

 

Please join successful entrepreneurs, utility representatives, venture capitalists, and policymakers to explore the business case behind the implementation of new technologies, and drill down into the intricacies of the energy efficiency market and opportunities for growth in this sector.
