Parks Associates announces speakers and keynotes ahead of tenth-annual Smart Energy Summit
Key industry executives will join Parks Associates for its tenth-annual Smart Energy Summit to address opportunities and strategies for utilities to drive consumer engagement with energy service through adoption of smart home products and participation in renewable power generation. The conference will take place February 18-20, 2019, in Austin, Texas.
“Saving money is a key benefit to flip smart home non-buyers to buyers,” said Jennifer Kent, Senior Director, Parks Associates. “Offering discounts or rebates for products such as smart thermostats, light bulbs, switches, and lighting control systems lowers the affordability barrier to purchasing and increases the role of energy and utilities in the smart home ecosystem.”
