POWER INDUSTRY SPEAKS OUT ON IMPENDING ENERGY LEGISLATION
Utility Leaders David Crane, Anthony Earley and David Ratcliffe Discuss Industry Response to Sweeping Law Changes
Phoenix, AZ – Congress is set to possibly adopt the most sweeping environmental and energy law in generations to address issues such as energy efficiency, renewables development and carbon emissions. Caught in this tidal wave of change are utilities and energy providers, pressured by recession-related drops in energy sales and rising demand for infrastructure investment. http://EnergyBusinessReports.com/shop/item.asp?itemid=2898&ref=ebd
David Crane, CEO and a director of NRG Energy, Inc., Anthony Earley, chairman and chief executive officer of DTE Energy and chairman of the Edison Electric Institute and David Ratcliffe, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Southern Company, will provide insight as to how the industry plans to adapt to the proposed legislative changes and other pending issues during discussion and Q&A at the EnergyBiz Leadership Forum
The 2010 EnergyBiz Leadership Forum will examine the fallout of the economic downturn, look at stimulus funds and early returns on the Obama administration’s American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) investment, and discuss the country’s progress in developing a new energy economy. Speakers include representatives from utilities, government, consumer advocacy groups, research laboratories, energy associations, businesses, regulators, and the energy vendor community.
The Forum, produced by Energy Central, will be held in Washington, D.C., February 28 through March 2, 2010, at the Mandarin Oriental. The event will kick off with a reception on Sunday, 2/28, with the sessions being held on Monday and Tuesday.
