The Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance's (NEEA) Market Research & Evaluation (MRE) team jumped headfirst into the new year by kicking off several new studies in the first quarter. These include the first Market Progress and Evaluation Report (MPER) for the Extended Motor Products Market Transformation program, a market research effort to assess consumers’ use and attitudes toward connected consumer products, market research with home energy raters in the Northwest, and Residential Code Compliance Evaluations for both Montana and Oregon. This list provides a great snapshot of the all the types of research and evaluation that NEEA’s MRE team scopes, manages and delivers to support NEEA’s Market Transformation programs. Together, these different types of research and evaluation studies serve two outcomes: they support the continuous improvement of NEEA's Market Transformation programs, and they provide unbiased, third-party assessments of new program concepts and current programs’ successes and opportunities for improvement.
