Note
Penn State is holding its first organizing meeting of the Distributed Energy Innovation Partnership (DEIP) in the morning of November 8th. While the Ameresco program is separate from the Penn State program, we chose to schedule both programs on the same day so that you could take part in both sessions. We welcome the Penn State program attendees to the Ameresco workshop.
