American Energy Society Hosting “Local Energy, America’s Power” Event Series in Abingdon, Virginia
Premier post-election event will cover all
transformational energy solutions available for coal country
The
American Energy Society, the trusted professional association
dedicated to accelerating the pursuit of abundant, affordable, safe
energy, today announced its next series event, ”Local
Energy, America’s Power,” at bucolic Emory & Henry College in
Abingdon, Virginia, on December 5 and 6, 2016. This is the first formal
post-election event on energy in the country. The speakers and panelists
will bring views that represent the entire spectrum of opportunities,
promising a balanced and deeply thoughtful review of what is perhaps the
most pressing issue facing the country today. More importantly, the
emphasis is on emerging energy technologies suitable to the Upper South,
which highlights potential business development and job creation.
According to Eric Vettel, President of the Society, “the objectives for
the Summit are straightforward - strengthen the energy cluster of the
Upper South and create a model that can serve as a best practice for
other regions. This Summit is exceptional because it is also the first
time that professionals from every energy sector will have an
opportunity to convene post-election.” Jake Schrum, President of Emory &
Henry College: “We are delighted and honored to be hosting this Summit
on energy innovation and related opportunities for economic development
and job growth in the Mid-Appalachian Region. We expect highly important
contributions to the future of the region.”
In recognition of this important and timely event, the American Energy
Society is offering discounted registration for a limited number of
seats – anyone interested should register
today. A limited number of special sponsor-partnership
opportunities are also available.
