“Our mission is to provide electric utility stakeholders from across the nation with an unprecedented venue to collaborate, share best practices, and create the future of the electric utility industry,” explains GridWise Alliance CEO Steve Hauser. “Attendees will hear from industry and policy experts via inspirational keynotes, insightful fireside chats, and expert-rich panel discussions as well as have the opportunity to participate in policy working groups, tour Capitol Hill, and join extensive networking sessions.”
“Massive shifts in business and policy models are dramatically reshaping the electric utility landscape,” says Clean Edge Managing Director Ron Pernick. “As we move toward higher penetration of utility-scale wind and solar resources, along with increasing use of energy storage, electric vehicles, energy efficiency, and other distributed resources, it’s critical that businesses, utilities, and regulators come together to build consensus and forge common ground.”
