What is Energy Independence? Behavior Modification. Location: Renaissance Ballroom Plaza, Landmark 4
Energy Xtreme’s presentation will explore exactly why the energy industry is often resistant to strides towards its desired outcomes. Adopting the necessary changes for the industry to be more successful can be difficult and Energy Xtreme will discuss the challenges, including the biggest hurdle - changing human behavior.
Energy Xtreme will examine the possibilities of taking a more collaborative approach between producers, management, employees, distributors, government agencies and consumers to achieve the industry’s ultimate goals.
Although resources are becoming more scarce and the limitations of an aging electrical infrastructure have become more apparent, there is one concept upon which most can agree: there is very low hanging fruit to be picked, both within industry operations and by the end user; addressing this should be the most logical first step in obtaining better utilization of existing assets, better resource management, decreasing consumer side load and lessening environmental impact by increasing organic production.

Discuss how the energy industry can come together and solve issues that often block progress in the industry.
