The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently released a special report on the state of climate change. The findings were less than pleasant, with the report underscoring that "we only have the slimmest of opportunities remaining to avoid unthinkable damage to the climate system that supports life as we know it."

AESP’s national conference is around the corner. At KSV, we love seeing people come together to talk, share and learn about sustainable energy.
For AESP in the past, we’ve focused on customer engagement. We’ve spoken about targeting large C&I customers with native advertising, co-presenting with our client, Erin Motta from National Grid.
Erin is a senior marketing analyst in the energy product marketing area of National Grid.
This week, we’re sharing an interview we had with Erin after an AESP gathering that covered some of the questions remaining after the session.
Topics: utility communications, intent marketing, grassroots marketing, community marketing, data science, IoT, innovation, customer centric, digital transformation, hyper-targeting, millennials

What do fried chicken, Santa Claus, and sustainable energy all have in common?
The obvious answer would be nothing. But here’s our take: They each fill a void.
In 1970, the manager of Japan’s first KFC woke in the middle of the night with a business idea. Takeshi Okawara wanted to sell a “party barrel” of fried chicken on Christmas.

It’s time for another edition of policy, not politics.
Last week we mentioned that Donald Trump signed the NDAA that said, “Climate change is a direct threat to the national security of the United States.”
We talked about how this was a small win for climate change activists because of the fact that the administration didn’t push back on this language being in the act.
Well, another week, another development.

It’s time for another edition of policy, not politics.
A couple of weeks ago we wrote about the possibility of President Trump signing a bill, the National Defense Authorization Act, that included language acknowledging climate change—a notion that has been at odds with his administration’s position.
Well that bill was signed, yesterday.

With the holidays just around the corner, many of us will be heading home to spend time with the ones we love.
So, what does home mean to you? Comfort? Safety? Love?
Now ask yourself, what does it mean to your customers?
Odds are, home is as important to them as it is to you. Home is both a global and unifying concept, and Ørsted is using this human connection to communicate a very important message this holiday season with their Love Your Home campaign.
