Advanced Energy Communities (AECs) in California assist in accelerating deployment of renewable energy resources from 28% at present to 33% by 2020.
These communities achieve net zero energy with onsite renewables and storage to improve grid reliability and resiliency. By avoiding construction of new transmission and distribution lines, AEC best practices can be replicated and scaled to improve upon existing infrastructure.

The California Energy Commission (CEC) has identified the low income community of Oak View in Huntington Beach, CA as a good candidate for an AEC demonstration project.
In order for the community at large to achieve zero net energy, the energy demand of its building stock must be dramatically reduced.

Add details.
The project will develop a set of advanced design, integration and control strategies of energy infrastructure for a real community at Huntington Beach. The findings will be extensive and the design of the community is potentially replicable to other communities throughout California. It will also improve the living conditions and environment of the community.
