Utility Solar Conference - July 28-29, 2009 at the San Jose Marriott | San Jose, CA
SEPA’s Utility Solar Conference (USC) is a two day conference open only to utility employees. Utilities that are interested in exploring how to develop a viable long-term solar strategy of benefit to the utility, its customers, its shareholders, and its stakeholders deserve a forum that allows them to share information, exchange ideas, and talk through the details of various strategies and business models in a safe environment free of outside influences. SEPA's Utility Solar Conference provides this forum. The conference will not include exhibits, and industry participation will be limited to a small number of select sponsors. Space is limited to 300 utility attendees, so early registration is recommended.
The comprehensive conference content is being designed BY utilities FOR utilities, targeting employees across departments with a role in solar program and project development and implementation, from executives to distribution engineers to program marketers. The conference will include a track for distributed solar and a track for utility-scale solar projects.
SEPA’s Utility Solar Conference will take place on July 28 and 29 at the San Jose Marriott in San Jose, CA. Pre and post-conference tours and workshops will take place on July 27 and July 30.
