The mission of the Communications and Market Outreach group is to relay the results
of the research and development being performed at the Buildings Technology
Center (BTC) to a variety of audiences to encourage cooperative agreements
and increased use of energy-efficient and environmentally safe building
technologies.
The Communications and Market Outreach group provides customized information on:
The group also directs an international building envelope conference featuring over 150 presenters; hosts exhibits at the International Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigerating Exposition; and promotes a kiosk that after entering zip code and house characteristics, recommends the most cost-effective type and amount of insulation for a homeowner.
The Communications and Market Outreach group markets energy-efficient building technologies
through numerous media, including kiosks, CD-ROMs, the Internet, conferences
and displays, published articles, and targeted mailings.
By participating in International Energy Agency programs, the group promotes
U.S. technologies internationally while facilitating cooperative research
among experts in various countries.
Networking with private industry, other national laboratories, universities,
and building associations, along with strong leadership from the Department
of Energy, is our key success.
