Tackling load growth:
Smarter approaches to energy efficiency and load management

WEBINAR ON DEMAND
Duration: 1 hour


Utility leaders live in interesting times. A decade or so ago, for example, electric utilities were forecasting little, if any, load growth. Today, that picture is very different. In fact, a report released by ICF reveals electricity usage could grow by 9% by 2028 and 18% by 2033.

What’s more: an analysis by the U.S. Department of Energy concluded that data center load growth alone tripled between 2014 and 2024 and was expected to double or triple again by 2028, as demand from artificial intelligence (AI) applications soars. This webinar moves beyond speculation to identify exactly what utility program leaders are thinking. Tune in now to find out why:

  • 98% of respondents said evolving their energy efficiency programs is essential to realizing a return on investment.
  • 100% acknowledged the importance of engaging with economically burdened communities.
  • 100% are using AI in at least one aspect of their customer programs.
