At these meetings DOE looks forward to providing grantees with:
• Discussions of EECBG & SEP best practices, highlighting successful projects;
• A forum to begin thinking and planning for the period beyond ARRA by creating self‐sustaining programs and filling funding gaps;
• Access to DOE and technical subject matter experts; and
• Network building opportunities with fellow grantees.

This will be an unprecedented opportunity to share experiences with other EECBG & SEP grantees who are implementing similar projects (What has worked well? What have the challenges been? How did you overcome them?). Grantees can make connections with other energy practitioners in the region that will enable them to collaborate on future projects and programs.

The agenda for these events have been specifically designed to address regional topics of interest, and the format includes panel sessions, round table discussions, breaks for networking and open‐discussion, and the opportunity to sit down for one‐on‐one or group discussion with Project Officers and technical experts.
