The Big-Box Efficiency Project is a partnership with the California Energy Commission, a big box retailer, IOU, and non-profit, to evaluate impacts of installing an integrated suite of precommercial energy efficiency technologies in an existing big-box retail store. The goal is to achieve greater than 20% savings in electric consumption, in support of California's aggressive greenhouse gas reduction goals. This session focuses on the innovative technologies used to drive deep energy efficiency savings in big-box retail and opportunities to further build resiliency through the integration of these types of technologies with on-site generation, storage and demand-response.
