The North American Insulation Manufacturers Association (NAIMA) is the association for North American manufacturers of fiber glass, rock wool, and slag wool insulation products. Its role is to promote energy efficiency and environmental preservation through the safe production and use of these products. Visit NAIMA on-line at www.SimplyInsulate.com.

Recognizing energy efficiency’s role in addressing climate change and in moderating the expected growth in electricity demand, the Institute for Electric Efficiency (IEE) was created to focus on accelerating the industry’s energy-efficiency and demand response efforts.

IEE serves electric utilities and policymakers across the country as a clearinghouse and resource for information, best practices, and innovation. Specifically, the Institute acts as a forum to:

  • Advance energy-efficiency practices and demand response among electric utilities;
  • Promote the sharing of information, ideas, and experiences in energy efficiency and demand response in the power sector; and
  • Develop a resource base of effective business models and practices for energy efficiency and demand response.

David Gardiner & Associates is drawing on its extensive energy efficiency and climate change experience to assist GroundedPower expand its pilot programs “and spread the word about its revolutionary approach.” GroundedPower’s software enables goal setting, tracks progress, and builds on a public commitment to efficiency by tapping multiple sources of motivation for energy-saving behavior, including: saving money, environmental protection, competition, community engagement, social pressure, and new information/learning. The technology and software is in 100 homes on Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard as part of a year-long pilot project sponsored by Cape Light Compact.  Other pilots are under development.
