Office buildings account for almost 40% of the national total energy consumption, but existing technologies can immediately reduce that load. In the near future, technology advancements could cut energy consumption by over 75%. Come hear about the revolution for "Offices of the Future."

PG&E and SCE will present their initiatives during a panel, moderated by Joel Makower, founder of Clean Edge and Greener World Media, Inc. The "Offices of the Future" panel will also include Greenplug, a company that reduces plug load, and several policy and energy efficiency market experts. The evening will also include a poster session from Energy Efficiency Alumni and current contestants, as well as plenty of networking opportunities.
