SUMMARY:2025 New York State Building Code Changes
DESCRIPTION:The AEE Capital Region Chapter is hosting a focused training on changes to the New York State Energy Conservation Code. This training provides an overview of the 2025 updates to the New York State Energy Conservation Construction Code\, focusing on key changes that impact design\, construction\, and compliance.  \n\n\n\nLed by Jason Dodge\, CEM\, CPDT\, LEED AP\, the session will highlight new efficiency requirements\, documentation expectations\, and enforcement considerations for building projects across New York. Attendees will gain practical insight into how these updates affect project planning\, energy modeling\, and code compliance\, helping ensure their projects meet the latest standards while maximizing energy performance and available incentives. \n\n\n\nPresenter: Jason Dodge\, NYS Code Enforcement Official\, CEM\, CPDT\, LEED AP \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJason Dodge is the Energy Engineering Manager at Danforth’s Buffalo office\, where he leads a team of energy engineers in identifying efficiency upgrades and verifying utility performance across diverse projects. With more than 20 years of industry experience\, including over 11 years with Danforth\, Jason specializes in energy performance contracting\, incentive acquisition\, and code compliance. His portfolio spans municipal\, K–12\, higher education\, healthcare\, multifamily\, industrial\, and cleanroom projects. A New York State Code Enforcement Official and active member of AEE\, ASHRAE\, ASPE\, and the International Code Council\, Jason brings deep technical expertise and a collaborative approach to every engagement. \n\n\n\n\n\nThis Lunch and Learn style event will be hosted by our partners at J. W. Danforth at 5 Liebich Lane in Clifton Park. AEE CR would like to thank both J. W. Danforth and NYSSPE for sponsoring the PDH credits for this event.

SUMMARY:NYPA AGILe Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join the AEE Capital Region Chapter for an exclusive tour of the New York Power Authority (NYPA) Advanced Grid Innovation Laboratory for Energy (AGILe) in Albany\, NY\, one of the most innovative energy technology facilities in the Northeast. \n\n\n\nThe NYPA AGILe Lab is at the forefront of grid modernization\, clean energy innovation\, and digital transformation in the power sector. This is a rare opportunity to get an inside look at the cutting-edge tools\, technologies\, and strategies NYPA is deploying to advance New York State’s ambitious clean energy goals. \n\n\n\nWhether you are an energy engineer\, sustainability professional\, facility manager\, or utility industry representative\, this tour promises to deliver valuable insights and spark meaningful conversations about the future of energy in our region. This event is only open to AEE members. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat does AGILe do?\n\n\n\nThe Advanced Grid Innovation Laboratory for Energy (AGILe) is a world-class electric power systems laboratory operated by the New York Power Authority (NYPA) at the NY CREATES Albany NanoTech Complex. Its primary function is to provide a real-time testing environment to modernize the electric grid and accelerate the transition to clean energy. \n\n\n\nCore Functions & Capabilities \n\n\n\nNational Resource: In early 2026\, AGILe was added to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Registry of Electric Grid Test Beds\, recognizing it as the only facility nationwide with full system-level functionality for multi-regional large-scale power grids.  \n\n\n\nDigital Twin of the NY Power Grid: AGILe hosts the first-ever comprehensive digital twin of the New York State electric grid\, allowing for the simulation of future scenarios and the testing of new technologies in a risk-free environment. \n\n\n\nDe-risking Technology: It enables utilities\, grid operators\, and technology developers to validate new products—such as battery storage\, EV charging infrastructure\, and offshore wind integration—before they are deployed in the field. \n\n\n\nCybersecurity Research: The lab serves as a hub for cybersecurity\, allowing experts to simulate cyber incidents and develop innovative mitigation technologies. \n\n\n\nGrid Reliability Testing: Experts use real-time simulations to assess the impacts of extreme weather events and high penetrations of renewable energy on the bulk power system to ensure long-term reliability. \n\n\n\nCheck in instructions will be shared with registered attendees. Registration will open on 4/24/26 at 7:00 AM. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nEvent Details \n\n\n\n\n📅 Date: Tuesday\, August 11\, 2026\n\n\n\n🕐 Time: 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM\n\n\n\n📍 Location: NYPA AGILe Lab\, Albany\, NY (exact address and parking details to follow upon registration)\n\n\n\n\nSpace is limited — register early to secure your spot.
