Connected Buildings Challenge

June 22, 2016 By NEEC

The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is leading their first ever innovation challenge for the U.S. Department of Energy, Connected Building Challenge, with a goal to accelerate the development of connected buildings. On August 3rd, selected project teams will demonstrate their solutions at the Smart Buildings Center in Seattle. As a partner, please join PNNL, the Department of Energy, other partners, and participants to network and learn about innovative solutions for building connectivity. This is a FREE event so space is limited – register now to hold a spot!

Meet the Teams: You can learn more about the teams and their projects here. And make sure to follow their progress on the challenge blog.

Showcase Your Tech: Want to show off your own tech at the demo? Organizations who have proof-of-concept solutions or ideas related to VOLTTRON are welcome to demo their products on August 3 without formally participating in the challenge. Contact Xiaoli Duan with PNNL at [email protected].
