DOE Reschedules Stakeholder Meeting for Early August
The Department of Energy (DOE) announced last week that its stakeholder meeting, originally scheduled for May 22, has been postponed until early August. The delay is a result of the DOE’s initial energy savings analysis for 2009, 2012 and 2015 criteria, during which the department determined it needed to conduct additional cost and feasibility research before establishing the 2012 and 2015 criteria.
The exact date of the stakeholder meeting will be released at a later time, according to DOE. The revised timeline is as follows:

July 2007 - July 2008 |
