Verisae announces the inclusion of Mr. Paul Hepperla, Vice President of Sustainability Resource Planning (“SRP”), in the panel discussion on energy efficiency and the emerging Smart Grid Coalition across the Midwest.

Hosted by the University of Minnesota’s Initiative for Renewable Energy and the Environment, conference participants will hear from prominent smart grid experts, such as Mr. Hepperla, as they address the pressing energy management questions facing the current and future United States energy infrastructure.

It is advised to collect energy data to the lowest-level of granularity possible. This means tracking energy efficiency efforts to spectacular level of detail; up to and beyond the meter to the energy consuming asset itself,” noted Mr. Hepperla. “If not, you may face the consequences of an energy approach that is fraught with risk, lacks the visibility into management challenges, and the pathway to control energy usage across distributed organizations.

Smart grid technologies bring both challenges and opportunities, and require significant investment in research and development. But smart grids also have the potential to serve as a catalyst for economic recovery, green jobs, and overall energy security. Key questions addressed at the E3 2009 Conference include:
•How do we retrofit and engineer a stable, resilient grid in the face of unpredictable power sources?
•What role will increased efficiency, energy storage, advanced power electronics and other technologies play in the grid of the future?
•What emerging technologies will enable new products, services and markets?

Energy management systems enable a shared technology platform that empowers and motivates participants to capture the benefits of the smart grid as soon as possible. A smart grid energy platform enables customers, utilities, transmission authorities, and third parties to obtain dynamic pricing, to initiate demand response (DR) events, and manage energy efficiently across disparate locations.
