2018 HELIX Summit, December 07, 2018, Providence , RI
Event Description

Please join for our third annual Home Energy Labeling Information eXchange (HELIX) Summit this December 7 in Providence, Rhode Island. NEEP is also organizing a reception on the evening prior to the Summit so come and network with your peers at the Biltmore Providence.

 

As we near the end of this three-year project funded by U.S. Department of Energy, HELIX turns towards future business plans and carving out its place in residential market transformation. This full-day event will give attendees the opportunity to hear about how the pilot project is going and what future plans are for this first-of-its-kind effort to automate the transfer of home energy data to Multiple Listing Services (MLS). 

 

Learn from pilot states as they integrate HELIX into their home energy labeling efforts, as well as various other industry stakeholders who are working to transform the real estate market. Topics include residential labeling policies and programs, expansion of HELIX beyond New England and New York, integration of new data sources, and much more.
