West Virginia Building Conference held in conjunction with Create WV Conference The West Virginia Building Conference will be part of the Create WV conference held at Glenville State College October 26-28. During each of the breakout sessions on October 27 and 28, there will be discussions about building, with several discussions about energy efficiency. For more information visit www.createwv.org. Integrated Resource Planning passed; still waiting on PSC to implement rules The West Virginia Legislature passed a bill to require electric utilities to do integrated resource planning. Under H.B. 2803, WV electric companies will have to submit electric generation plans to the WV Public Service Commission that include consideration of energy efficiency. The bill represents an agreement reached between WV electric utilities and our campaign. Integrated Resource Planning / Least Cost Planning has been a campaign of Energy Efficient West Virginia for the past three years and this is a win for advancing energy efficiency in the mountain state. Check out the Energy Savings Action Center, by Appalachian Voices -- an online tool promoting home energy efficiency, including information about utility programs, businesses that provide energy efficiency services, and tips for simple home energy improvements.
