ABOUT
Total Energy USA is a groundbreaking new annual conference and exposition that will assemble the full range of traditional and renewable energy industries for a comprehensive look at the overarching, integrated energy solutions needed to meet today’s energy challenges. Unlike other industry events that have a narrower focus or may be aligned to certain interests, Total Energy USA will provide a balanced forum with an opportunity for all the energy sectors—fossil, nuclear, renewables, and cross-cutting sectors like energy-efficiency—to be represented. The resulting mix will create new business opportunities for participants as they discuss how to balance locally available resources, economics, reliability and environmental impact when making important energy decisions.
The inaugural event, held November 27-29, 2012 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, is expected to host thousands of industry delegates, including architects, builders, community leaders, developers, energy consultants, government, independent power producers, landowners, large energy users, media, oil and gas suppliers, power utilities, researchers and others. Hundreds of exhibitors—companies supplying equipment, technologies, products or services for every aspect of the energy industry—are also expected to be on hand.
Total Energy’s professional educational conference will be led by experts in fossil, renewable and nuclear power generation, energy efficiency and use, finance, business strategies as well as local, federal and foreign government policymakers. By assembling thought leaders, visionaries and policy shapers who are at the forefront of the developments that influence the energy industry, Total Energy USA will facilitate collaborative conversations about the state of energy today and the best options to design the way we produce and use energy tomorrow.
