The General Services Administration’s Green Proving Ground program, in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy’s a new request for information on August 1, 2024, focused on enabling energy efficiency and decarbonization in commercial buildings, contributing to a more efficient electric infrastructure, and improving resiliency and occupant health.
When a technology is selected for evaluation in the GPG, GSA and DOE match it with one or more buildings and directly oversee its installation and evaluation. These “proving grounds” give DOE’s national laboratory experts an opportunity to evaluate the technical and operational characteristics of mature, but not widely deployed, building technologies in real-world buildings.
The mission of the U.S. Energy Department is to ensure America’s security and prosperity by addressing its energy, environmental and nuclear challenges through transformative science and technology solutions. Learn more.
