Our biannual tech roundup webinars keep you updated on the latest developments in energy-efficiency, load management, and decarbonization technologies. During these online events, we discuss the technologies and trends our researchers have been following over recent months that offer great potential for your pilots and programs. We recently discussed 11 technology trends we see on the horizon as part of our Tech roundup: Spring 2021 webinar. Here’s an exclusive look at four of the hot tech trends we covered.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! The E Source Forum 2021 is just a little over a month away. We know many of you are also counting down the days until the event, but if you’re still on the fence, here are 10 really compelling reasons why you should join us this year.

We’re inching closer and closer to E Source Forum 2021. In just a little over a month, we’ll be learning (and celebrating) with you, whether you’ll be joining us in person or online from the comfort of your home office. We’re so excited to see you all again and have so much to share at this year’s event!

Snow and ice storms in the southern US as well as wildfires and blackouts in the West have brought energy consumption, reliability, and resourcing to the forefront. According to the article A Major Report Warns Climate Change Is Accelerating And Humans Must Cut Emissions Now, human-generated emissions of greenhouse gases are the overwhelming cause of the climate crisis.

Sure, those in the electric vehicle (EV) business love their EVs. Electric utilities and EV owners and enthusiasts are all big fans. But are these cars really that great compared to the internal combustion engine (ICE) car we’ve been used to all our lives?

The E Source Forum is just a mere month away, but there’s still some time left to take advantage of our offer of six complimentary pieces of content. It’s been so much fun pulling together the most popular pieces to help you navigate this exclusive offer, and we’re thrilled to wrap up this blog series with what’s been hot this month!

Have you wondered how your utility website stacks up against others? Every other year, we complete the E Source Website Benchmark. In 2021, we reviewed 85 utility websites from across the US and Canada. Here, we highlight a few of our key findings and announce the utilities that scored the highest on individual attributes.

Can you believe the E Source Forum 2021 is just a couple weeks away? It’ll be here before you know it. We’ve got two more tracks to shine the spotlight on for you in preparation of the event.

Today, the spotlight is on “Optimizing customer programs for an evolving grid.” This track will help you determine the best way to run innovative and successful customer programs as utility business models and climate goals evolve and grow.

Utilities need to know more about future electric vehicle (EV) buyers to design effective marketing campaigns that reach them. To help you, we drew on results of the E Source 2020 Electric Vehicle Residential Customer Survey and modeling from E Source OneInform, analyzing residential customers’ habits, preferences, and demographics.

With the E Source Forum 2021 just one week away, we’re pleased to bring you our final track spotlight. We can’t wait for you to join us next week and hope you have a wonderful event whether you’re coming in person or logging on from home.
