Your business customers are unique, so you’re not likely to find a one-size-fits-all approach to serving them. In this session, we shared trends and insights gleaned from our market research studies that will help you strategize by business type. Attendees learned about the differences between lodging, grocery, retail, industrial, healthcare, and other sectors, and they got ideas for what to focus on to best serve each of these business types.

After the session, we asked Eric Wilson, the residential building systems engineer at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), a few questions about his presentation. Check out his video responses below. An if you’re an E Source member, visit the E Source Forum 2019 page to download this and other session presentations.
