Senior Decision-Makers Analyze the Impact of the New Administration's Energy Policy on the Transmission Industry

The 11th Annual Edition of the Transmission Industry's Premier Business Meeting

Senior transmission executives will once again meet to address the strategic, regulatory, investment and technology issues facing their industry at the annual "Transmission Summit," produced by Infocast, on March 11-13, 2009 in Washington, DC.

The theme of this year's "Transmission Summit" is "Regulatory Challenges and Strategic Opportunities for the Next Phase of Transmission Development." This year's Summit will discuss both the opportunities and challenges being presented as many transmission owners and operators move projects from the drawing board through construction.

At the "Transmission Executive Forum," March 11, 2009, senior decision makers will discuss the next phase in transmission policy and regulation. With recent studies indicating that enormous investment in transmission infrastructure will be needed to support changes in energy and climate change policies that are anticipated to unfold in early 2009, how will regulatory initiatives be crafted to support this coming wave of new transmission development?

At the "Transmission Summit," March 12-13, 2009, key leaders will provide detailed explanation of how they are working to surmount the hurdles of planning and developing large-scale projects to serve energy markets that may look very different than those of the past. With many transmission projects moving from the drawing board and permitting process to full-scale development, opportunities abound to develop projects to move electricity vast distances and to support a high percentage of renewable energy; if permitting, financial and construction challenges can be overcome. Join senior transmission players as they discuss how they are responding to these emerging challenges.
