This category called energy management has generated a ton of interest, innovation and players.

It certainly feels like it’s time for dance partners to be picked. Perhaps this is the start of some much needed “winner picking” in the space.

The fact is there are some terrific solutions that can really be making a meaningful difference in energy usage in North America. Today solutions.

Hopefully with more clarity around the “winners” we can move out of endless loops of studying, researching, piloting and into difference making!
