Stakeholders and Market Connections
A major element of the Center is the strong market connection developed for each and every project. A concerted effort is made to involve a variety of stakeholders in Center planning and on research teams. The Center's stakeholders include: industry trade associations, researchers, building owners, engineers, and operators, and building equipment manufacturers.
In addition to the broad-based involvement of stakeholders as described above, market connection strategies will include:
- An extensive website
- Research reviews and evaluation summaries
- Project brochures and papers summarizing research results for multiple audiences
- Educational material for utility, building associations, and related organizations
- Semi-annual project briefings for key stakeholders
