Modernizing U.S. Buildings and
Energy Infrastructure: Promoting
Economic Development and Technology
Innovation
The need for a more sustainable,
efficient, and resilient energy system
presents a significant opportunity to
improve the U.S. economy, job creation,
and global competitiveness. However,
there are a number of challenges to
overcome. The aging electric grid is
vulnerable to blackouts and cyber
attack. Pending and active air
regulations are impacting the business
decisions of utilities and
manufacturers. A lack of coordination
across the state, federal, and private
sectors in technology investment and
policy development is leading to a
band-aid approach to infrastructure
development. Buildings account for 40
percent of energy consumption, about
half of which is attributable to the
commercial sector. All of these
challenges, combined with tightening
public budgets, demand a shift in the
business as usual model to a more
dynamic and robust coordination and
investment strategy. Join us in the
nation’s capital for the 2012
NASEO/ASERTTI State Energy Policy and
Technology Outlook Conference on
February 7-10, 2012, at the
Fairmont Washington, D.C.
