Carlsbad, Calif. – April 12, 2010 – Realcomm Conference Group, LLC, a global leader in providing education on the topic of technology, automation and innovation for the commercial and corporate real estate industry, today announced their Founding Education Partners for their new seminar series entitled “Energy and Sustainability: Smart Building to Smart Grid.” Johnson Controls, Tridium, Sigma Sustainability Institute, Pacific Controls and Constellation NewEnergy will be participating as National Education Partners to present information on the latest in energy and sustainability. The Energy and Sustainability Seminar is a 4.5-hour education session that will be presented in eight major cities in the U.S., including Atlanta, Chicago, Washington DC, Houston, New York, Boston, Los Angeles and Seattle.

While “energy” is considered one of the most important topics of our times, it can mean many things to different people: alternative energy, smart grids, carbon tax credits, stimulus funding, green buildings, turning off the lights, electric cars and the list goes on.

Problems with identifying the issues and subsequent opportunities when dealing with energy means sifting through the noise and really understanding where green, sustainability, intelligent buildings and smart grids can impact operations in a realistic and positive way.

This seminar series will sort through the topic of energy and make it extremely relevant to the owners and operators of commercial and corporate real estate.

“Everyone agrees that solving the energy and global warming crisis is of historic importance. But despite this consensus, there remains an inordinate amount of confusion in the commercial and corporate real estate industry as to what can be done short and long term to solve this problem,” said Jim Young, President and CEO of Realcomm, “As long-time educators on the topic of technology, automation and innovation for the commercial and corporate real estate industry, Realcomm is well suited to facilitate this important seminar series.”

Speakers will present new, innovative solutions and case studies for ‘green’, sustainable buildings as well as methods for establishing ROI on these new solutions. This seminar is a "must-attend" for owners, operators, developers, property managers, IT directors, architects, facility managers, engineers, system integrators and consultants.
