As the Economics, Policy & Institutional Support (EP&IS) Group Leader, I steward the capabilities of 55+ economists, engineers, scientists, project managers, and support professionals as they drive market transformation for advanced technologies through policy and deployment. The EP&IS Group is part of the Electricity Infrastructure and Buildings Division in the Energy & Environment Directorate and is made up of staff engaged in institutional change for federal operations, policy formulation and impact analysis, economic analysis and valuation methodologies, and technology adoption.

Prior to becoming a group leader, Emily led a team focused on Building Performance Evaluation within the Buildings Systems group. Since joining the laboratory in 2005 Emily has worked to develop new methods and approaches that enhance sustainability, energy and water efficiency, and resiliency for Federal agencies and public sector communities.
