Continuous investment in new energy infrastructure is necessary to sustain a growing economy and reduce vulnerabilities to unanticipated events. In addition, new energy technologies are often cleaner than the older technologies they replace. In North America, a large amount of old infrastructure needs to be replaced with cleaner, more efficient facilities.
Realizing these investments requires increased understanding of technical and economic fundamentals and improved communication between the industry, governments and the public. Hence, the conference will address technology, socioeconomic, regulatory and policy challenges and uncertainties for developing necessary energy infrastructure. Conference themes include: supply and access of hydrocarbons (conventional and unconventional); electricity markets and technologies for an efficient, low emissions future; legal and regulatory considerations; alternative energy and efficiency opportunities; human capital needs and constraints; associated science and technology challenges; and energy reporting and education on energy matters.
The conference will also feature technical tours, workshops, public outreach and student recruitment sessions to enhance the understanding of technical underpinnings of the energy industry infrastructure and to expand communication between sector professionals and the public.
