The California Plug Load Research Center (CalPlug) hosted a virtual workshop April 22. “CalPlug Earth Day 2021” focused on innovative energy solutions to contribute to the restoration of environmental balance.
The event was part of CalPlug’s workshop series designed to maximize communication of the latest research findings and development and to address challenges in plug load efficiency for both residential and commercial buildings. The events bring together utilities, manufacturers, advocacy groups, research institutions and energy policymakers.
CalPlug, located at the Calit2 Building, was established in 2011 to improve energy efficiency in the use and design of appliances and consumer electronic devices.
