BUILDING ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND GREEN ECONOMY DEVELOPMENT POLICY
SUMMER 2013 / BELLEVUE, WA
This research is a part of the collaboration between the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Community Innovator’s Lab Green Economic Development Initiative (MIT GEDI) and the City of Bellevue’s Environmental Stewardship Initiative in developing an Energy Efficiency Market Transformation Strategy for Bellevue. It aims to characterize the extent of energy management practices in commercial, and associated markets for energy services, in Bellevue and the broader Seattle-Bellevue-Tacoma region.
The findings are based on a review of existing publications and on interviews with approximately thirty participants in the commercial energy services sector, including energy service providers; real estate organizations representing regional building owners, developers and managers; individual property owners and managers; workforce development organizations; community college energy management faculty; and government staff.
