Advisors
CalFlexHub is guided by a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and an Equity Advisory Committee (EAC). The TAC provides input on technical aspects of the program and project designs. The EAC ensures that issues from underserved groups, such as low-income and disadvantaged communities, are integrated through the program with an “Equity First” concept in the portfolio.
Supporters
CalFlexHub is an ambitious initiative with nation-wide support. Together, we will accelerate the transition from static energy efficiency to dynamic energy management in the state of California and beyond.
