The Minnesota Department of Commerce funds a wealth of fascinating and enlightening projects within their Conservation Applied Research and Development (CARD) grants.
According to their website, “CARD projects quantify the savings, cost-effectiveness, and field performance of advanced technologies; characterize market potential of products and technologies in the State; and investigate and pilot innovative program strategies. Completed CARD projects provide utilities with informative and timely information to enhance energy efficiency program designs.”
