from the international forum will be shown online atVirtualEnergyForum.com ,
which is itself the site of a twice-annual Internet-based virtual trade show
and conference.
“We are delighted to be able to webcast the Energy
Efficiency Forum at VirtualEnergyForum.com,” said Dave Myers, president of co-sponsor
Johnson Controls’ building efficiency division. “By combining the more than 300
audience members at the National Press Club with the thousands of people
signing on to the Virtual Energy Forum, we can provide an outstanding
opportunity for dialogue that increases understanding of policies and best practices
for implementing energy efficiency and sustainability.”
The event is scheduled to include eight live video
presentations and a Johnson Controls-sponsored “booth.”
“This groundbreaking event will allow us to
maintain the value and benefits of face-to-face interaction, while bringing our
expert Energy Efficiency Forum speakers to the world stage using an online
platform that is time-efficient, cost-effective and green,” Myers said. “The combination of on-site presentations with
global online participation sets an example for the future of conferencing.”
The U.S. Energy Association is also sponsoring the
event. Conference details are at the official event website.
