The panel discussed key findings from the 2013 AESP State of the Industry Report. Two-thirds of thought leaders predicted increased DSM activity through 2015, though 1/3 felt activity had plateaued. Behavioral programs and low avoided costs would have the biggest impact in 2013. The commercial and industrial sector remains untapped. Saving money remains the top motivator for consumer adoption of EE/DR programs. The industry focuses heavily on implementation and design while respondents primarily work for utilities and represent organizations of various sizes from the US and Canada.
