ABOUT THE SUMMIT

 

MEET THE BUYERS LIVE AND IN-PERSON: Hear Them Discuss Their Upcoming Procurements and Take Advantage of The Vast Renewable Energy Opportunities in The Mountain West!

The energy landscape of the Mountain West continues to evolve, demanding increased clean energy development. States have established extraordinarily ambitious RPS targets, utilities have made aggressive commitments to renewables and decarbonization, and cities and corporations are procuring ever-increasing amounts of green power. At the same time, strides are being made in the progress for the development of more formally organized western electricity markets.

Only those who can keep up with all these developments will be able to take full advantage of future procurement opportunities.

At the Mountain West Clean Energy Procurement Summit this November, you will hear directly from the region’s leading energy buyers — IOUs and municipal utilities, co-ops, and corporate energy buyers — on their needs, preferences, and the initiatives they have underway to achieve the Mountain West states’ climate and clean energy goals.

This remarkable meeting will also bring together the region’s policymakers and regulators, cities, and the renewables community to network and exchange the latest information and insights on successfully achieving the region’s goals.

The summit will provide the perfect venue to take advantage of the vast opportunities for renewable energy procurement and development in the Mountain West and move the market forward — don't miss out!
