Emerging Technology
The WSU Energy Program assists BPA’s Emerging Technology – Bonneville Power Administration to assess innovative, energy-efficient technologies that could save electric energy but lack a foothold in the Northwest marketplace. As part of this program, we implemented a comprehensive process to identify, assess, peer review, and document the technologies’ technical and market potential.
Advanced Water Heating Initiative
WSU Energy Program and BPA Emerging Energy Efficiency Technologies are proud to support the Advanced Water Heating Initiative, a member-funded collaborative of building owners, utilities, federal agencies, state and local governments, manufacturers, engineers, installers, advocates, researchers, and building industry professionals from across the U.S. and aims to scale heat pump water heater (HPWH) installations by shaping policies, building demand, bringing products to market, and educating the supply chain.
