SUMMARY:Packaging and Marketing Comprehensive Home Energy Upgrades: Results of a Nationwide Study
DESCRIPTION:Comprehensive home energy upgrades can be expensive for most homeowners\, but a new report finds that targeting the right audience\, with the right messages\, and offering attractive upgrade packages with appealing financing can significantly shift behavior. State energy offices putting energy efficiency programs into place can use this information with their marketing partners and contractor networks to maximize uptake and increase efficiency and comfort for homeowners. \nJoin us for a webinar to learn about the results of this nationwide survey asking 1\,500 homeowners to reflect on scenarios in which they would invest (or not invest) in comprehensive energy efficiency upgrades. Attendees will hear insights from experts in both the marketing and residential energy efficiency fields who will discuss the potential impacts of the research.

SUMMARY:Maximizing Municipal Energy Strategies
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Department of Energy State and Community Programs (SCEP) office is launching a new educational webinar series focused on Energy Savings Performance Contracting (ESPC) in the non-federal sector. The next webinar in this series\, “Maximizing Municipal Energy Strategies” is scheduled for Wednesday\, May 8th 11:00 am PDT and will feature an interview with Lindsay Hawes\, Municipal Energy Program Manager at City of San Diego. Lindsay will share how she is navigating the challenges of implementing a new ESPC strategy that promises to address the modernization needs and decarbonization efforts of municipal government. \nAttendees will also learn how eProject eXpress (ePX) makes it easy for project owners and their ESCOs to manage project documents\, track data\, and report on project achievements. All municipal stakeholders\, including leadership\, sustainability\, finance\, legal and facility staff are welcome!

SUMMARY:Decarbonizing Residential Space Heating in Cold Climates
DESCRIPTION:Decarbonizing home heating can be challenging in the coldest U.S. regions. Electric heat pumps can operate in very low temperatures\, but with reduced performance and the potential for increasing winter peak electricity demand. Hybrid systems with biofuel backups for the coldest days could help economically yet wouldn’t achieve full decarbonization. How can clean heating be achieved in the most extreme winters without straining household budgets? \nJoin this webinar to hear the results of a new ACEEE report examining the future costs of decarbonized heating in the coldest areas of the country. Report authors and outside experts will discuss the impacts of several possible technologies\, including common heat pumps\, furnace and boiler options\, the use of low-carbon backup fuels stored in small tanks\, and adoption of air-to-water heat pumps.

SUMMARY:The Intersection of Energy Codes and Electrical Codes on the Road to Decarbonization
DESCRIPTION:As the U.S. housing stock electrifies and decarbonizes in the coming decades\, hundreds of millions of new electric loads will be added to new and existing dwellings. The cost and burden of this transition will depend\, in part\, on the need to upgrade the nation’s electrical infrastructure. The National Electric Code (NEC) is used nationally to calculate electrical loads and size service infrastructure and has been identified as an obstacle in addressing existing dwellings. Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (LBNL) has led an effort funded by the US DOE to review the existing electrical code for barriers to household electrification\, which led to an analysis by LBNL of sub-metering data to support proposed changes to the code. This session will address NEC requirements around solar PV\, home batteries\, and Energy Management systems. Speakers will summarize the barriers identified in the current electrical code\, present an overview of project data analysis\, and review proposed code changes. \nContinuing education credits (AIA and ICC) will be offered for most of the live events. Instructions for requesting certificates of completion will be provided during each webinar. \nLearn more about the BECP Energy Code Webinar Series: https://www.energycodes.gov/becp-energy-code-webinar-series

SUMMARY:Ductless cold climate heat pumps for multifamily applications
DESCRIPTION:Approximately 25% of multifamily units in buildings with four units or fewer and more than 40% of units in larger multifamily buildings (MFB) in Minnesota are heated with electric resistance heat (MN Energy Efficiency Potential Study\, 2018). This is particularly prevalent in lower-income buildings whose occupants can least afford high heating costs. Technological advances in cold climate air source heat pump (ccASHP) technology offer an opportunity to reduce heating energy use and occupant energy costs in this underserved housing sector. However\, retrofit applications of ccASHPs to MFBs is distinctly different from that in single-family homes\, and it is crucial to effectively recognize and address these differences for ccASHPs to meet their truly large savings potential in MFBs. \nHear key findings from Center for Energy and Environment (CEE) on a field study of a sample of ccASHPs in four Minnesota multifamily buildings\, where CEE installed\, monitored and evaluated the performance of these ccASHPs over at least one full heating season. The presentation will cover the detailed performance data to unpack the trade-offs of different ccASHP applications and approaches\, installation best practices\, the importance and impact of good controls\, and interactions with existing and supplemental heating sources.

SUMMARY:2024 City Clean Energy Scorecard: Are Cities Living up to their Climate Commitments?
DESCRIPTION:As the primary drivers of U.S. greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions\, cities are facing an urgent need to quickly take actions that will reduce their carbon footprint. Many have set ambitious targets to lower GHG emissions\, increase renewable energy\, electrify the buildings and transportation sectors\, and to do so while advancing racial and social equity. But are cities’ leaders doing their part to meet these goals? \nJoin us and find out as we reveal city rankings from the 2024 City Clean Energy Scorecard. We’ll also discuss emerging trends in clean energy plans\, policies\, and programs across the country. Attendees will hear from officials in several leading cities about what they are already doing\, and planning\, to reduce energy use and GHG emissions\, while simultaneously advancing racial and social equity.
