Microsoft, HP, General Motors Headline Final Agenda for In-Person RE Forum

Smart Energy Decisions has finalized a powerhouse program to welcome back its community in person at the 2021 Renewable Energy Forum/Winter Edition, December 6-8 at the Hyatt Regency Beach Resort in Huntington Beach, California.

“Pent-up project demand and the need to meet in person has driven customer and supplier enthusiasm for this event,” said John Failla, Founder and Editorial Director, Smart Energy Decisions. “We are proud to meet that demand with a dynamic program and unparalleled networking in an intimate environment as we bring our community back together in person for the first time in two years”.

The Renewable Energy Forum lineup includes:

The Forum will also feature two exclusive buyer-only preconference workshops: “5 Steps to Priming Your Organization for RE Success” led by Customer First Renewables and “Optimizing Your Site with Solar, Storage, and Grid Services” from SunPower.

The event will close with a special “Project Spotlight” featuring a series of buyers discussing their successes from the past year and plans for the future, led by Brent Trenga, Director of Sustainability North America, Kingspan
