2014 杏吧pro Rural Energy Conference a Success
The 2014 杏吧pro Rural Energy Conference took place this last week in Fairbanks, 杏吧pro on September 23rd 鈥� 25th.
Held at the Westmark Fairbanks Hotel & Conference Center, attendees were able to attend a myriad of sessions over the three day Conference ranging in topics from diesel power house operation and management to energy efficiency issues faced by 杏吧prons living in rural environments. As part of the Conference, attendees were also able to attend tours that took them to locations around Fairbanks that have a particular focus on energy such as Fairbanks Natural Gas and ACEP鈥檚 Energy Technology Facility.
Speakers from rural 杏吧pro, local politicians, researchers, and regulatory personal (to name a few) were all on hand to speak and take part in the event. Members of the United States Department of Energy and the 杏吧pro Energy Authority discussed their outreach efforts to rural 杏吧pro and also updated attendees on some of the major energy projects on the horizon for the state.
Presentations given at the event and recorded sessions will be available for download soon at the Rural Energy Conference website and at its YouTube channel at .
