About the ETCC
The Emerging Technologies Coordinating Council (ETCC) coordinates the efforts of member utilities to access and market cutting edge, energy efficient technologies. ETCC members include: Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E), Southern California Gas Company (SCGC), Southern California Edison (SCE), Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD), and California Energy Commission (CEC). The ETCC is supported and advised by the California’s Public Utilities Commission (CPUC).
The ETCC’s efforts in "Accelerating Our Energy Efficient Future" are driven by California’s “Big Bold” Energy Efficient Strategies established by the CPUC and CEC in California’s Long Term Energy Efficiency Strategic Plan for 2009 and beyond and by California’s commitment and aggressive schedule to reduce Carbon Dioxide emissions (AB32). This Strategic Plan sets forth a roadmap for energy efficiency in California through the year 2020 and beyond. It articulates a long-term vision and bold goals:
- Zero Energy New Homes by 2020
- Energy Consumption Reductions in Existing Homes - 30 to 70% by 2020
- Zero Energy Commercial Buildings by 2030
- Substantial Reductions in Plug Load Energy Consumption
- Dramatic Improvements in Lighting, Heating, Ventilation and Cooling systems

PIER & the ETCC
Fundamental to the ETCC is the CEC’s PIER Program, Public Interest Energy Research and Development. PIER funded research, public and private, provides early development of emerging technologies, which are validated at utility customer sites and marketed in utility programs and coordinated within the ETCC.
About the ET Summit
The primary purpose of the ET Summit is to give visibility to PIER and private supported researchers and innovators of energy efficient cutting edge technologies to utilities, government officials and citizens. Convincing laboratory results foster customer site validations within the ETCC, leading to market transformations.
The ET Summit will also provide Keynote Speakers and four Technical Tracks of expert speakers addressing scientific, technical and financial information, Residential/Mass Market, Commercial, Industrial/Agricultural/Financial and Energy Policy and Planning.
The Emerging Technologies Coordinating Council (ETCC) holds its Summit on Emerging Technologies every two years. The agenda for this Summit includes networking opportunities, an exhibitor's showcase, daily general sessions with keynotes that will explore the important topics of the day as well as breakout track sessions covering a variety of issues and innovations including:
- The future direction of Energy Efficiency in California and the Nation
- Technology Development and Clean Tech Investments
- Advanced Lighting Technologies
- Advanced Energy Efficient Electric technologies for the industrial market
- Trends in Zero Energy for the commercial and residential buildings
- Innovations in HVAC
- Energy Efficiency Opportunities in Water Delivery and Waste Water Treatment
- Energy Efficiency Opportunities through Demand Response Technologies
- Advanced Diagnostics Tools for Fault Detection
- and much more...
