From a 2017 conference attendee.“There is no better means to get a feeling for what’s coming regarding rates and regulations.”
–Keith W. Painter, Facilities Manager, PCC Airfoils LLC, Minerva
Best Practices to Reduce Your Energy Costs!
Welcome to the Energy Revolution … The energy economy is changing, and the landscape will look very different in five years than it does today. That presents both challenges – and opportunities – for customers, regulators, and the providers.
At a time of an abundant supply of inexpensive energy from domestic shale resources & new natural gas fired generating plants, the U.S. Department of Energy’s proposed rulemaking to cover the costs of baseload coal & nuclear generators in October, 2017 could lead to an unraveling of the wholesale power market. “(The proposed rule) would blow the market up,” according to former FERC Chairman, Jon Wellinghoff appointed to the Commission by former President Bush in 2006. “It’s gonna be as expensive as hell. Expensive as it can be will be paying the full freight on coal and nuclear plants.” To counter, current FERC Commissioner & a slated conference keynote speaker, Robert F. Powelson, told an audience of PJM stakeholders that FERC “will not destroy the markets.”
At the 22nd Annual Ohio Energy Management Conference, in addition to the priceless information on federal developments, you will receive insights into major energy legislation here in Ohio to provide more customer control over portfolio mandates, out-of-market compensation for older coal and nuclear plants, new setbacks for wind farms, clarity on the kWh tax for “self-generators” and an end to the “electric security plan.”
Attend the February conference and receive priceless insights on the forces that will determine your electricity bills and the options available to you to improve delivered price and reliability outcomes. You will obtain valuable information about changes, trends and how to better manage your energy costs to succeed in a rapidly changing environment. Among the features of the 2018 conference is how American corporations – two/thirds of the Fortune 100 companies and half of the Fortune 500 companies are embracing the promise of clean energy, not only to reduce their carbon footprint, but to improve their profits & bottom-lines and provide energy cost certainty.
As stated by previous conference attendee, you will learn both macro & micro energy issues. “I like the broad range of topics, some at the 10,000 foot view and some down in the weeds,” wrote Matthew M. Morris, Reliability Engineer & Energy Manager, North Star Blue Scope Steel, Delta, Ohio. As always, energy savings opportunities, energy efficiency, and how emerging technologies can help you reduce energy consumption will be major components of this annual conference. Again, featured at the 2018 Ohio conference is a plethora of best practices and case studies from Ohio companies and their leading-edge initiatives. Another previous conference attendee, Gregg Heeter, Plant Engineering Manager, Candle-lite, Leesburg, Ohio praised the conference & said it was helpful on “Latest information on regulatory issues and trends in the industry, plus helpful sessions to reduce energy spend and usage.” Register today for the largest energy management conference in America’s Heartland and reduce your energy costs by taking advantage of savings opportunities now!
