The DC Sustainability Energy Utility (DCSEU) helps DC residents and businesses use less energy and save money. Since 2011, the DCSEU has delivered financial incentives, technical assistance, and information to tens of thousands of District residents and businesses, helping them to save millions of dollars on their energy costs. As traditional utility models in the energy sector continue to fall short in meeting global economic, environmental and social challenges, is there space for a different kind of utility? Can the Sustainable Energy Utility (SEU) model co-exist with traditional utilities to help bridge these gaps? What lessons can we learn from the implementation of the renowned District of Columbia Sustainable Energy Utility (DCSEU)? Can the DCSEU model be adapted to suite the operating conditions of cities in emerging economies? Please join us for an event to discuss the above questions.
