Your organization is invited to participate in this second annual event!  The 3rd Wyoming Utility Efficiency Exchange event goal is to facilitate a networking and professional development conference for staff representatives of energy and water utilities serving Wyoming and neighboring states who are responsible for developing and implementing customer programs related to energy/water efficiency, renewable energy, demand response and key account customer management.  This event is expected to attract about 100 utility and sponsor organization staff as well as trade allies that provide products and services to support utility programs.  The agenda will focus on best practices from regional utilities.  This conference is not about how to influence policies or motivate utilities to take action, but rather how utilities that already recognize the need and value are developing and implementing customer programs. 

This two-day event begins with a buffet lunch on Tuesday and ends with a buffet lunch on Wednesday.  A hosted reception will be presented on Tuesday evening for registrants, sponsors, senior utility managers and board members.  Sessions on Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning will feature interactive “utility snapshot” 5-minute panel presentations as well as 30-minute “best practices and lessons learned” presentations in the same room as sponsor poster-banner presentations.  All meals and hospitality are included in the two-tier registration fee that encourages utility and government staff participation. 

Billboard Display. All hosts and sponsors will receive a billboard display around the perimeter of the meeting room (see graphic). We believe this special recognition is a more environmentally sustainable alternative to the traditional table-top or pop-up exhibit. All sponsors and supporters will be invited to provide a “camera ready” graphic file which will be reproduced on stretch fabric and erected using light-weight material. This solution reduces the carbon emissions associated with each sponsor and supporter transporting their own display.
