NetworkingEnsure that you have the opportunity to engage

with the key decision makers within your industry. We can create a platform for you to

effectively interact with your top customers and prospects in the environment of your choice.

This can range from formalized private meetings / workshops right through to less structured networking events such as sponsored drinks

receptions, coffee breaks or lunches. Ultimately whatever you decide is the right forum; we will support you in your quest to advance relationships with the key people who can

influence the future of your business.

BrandingYour company can be elevated to a position where they are seen as a market leader. In a

fiercely competitive market you need to ensure that your brand is differentiated from the

competition. Failure to create a clear identity will see your organization fade into the

background. We ensure that we do everything we can to effectively lift your brand before, during and after the event. Not only do we

create a fully integrated marketing campaign, which your company can be part of, but we also offer high impact premium branding opportunities for example on bags, water

bottles, pens lanyards etc.

Thought LeadershipIf you think that you should be viewed as a true industry leader then your need to demonstrate

your market knowledge and expertise through a thought leadership opportunity, such as speaking

or chairing. This is a highly unique opportunity for your company to educate the market, and as long as you are credible enough to fit into a high level event program, we can position

your organization alongside top customers and prospects in our speaker faculty. As part of this speaker faculty your company will be set apart from other industry attendees giving you the competitive edge required to make further

of policies, development and refinement of strategies, and oversight for implementation of all programs and initiatives related to Energy Security and Sustainability within the Army. As the Army’s Senior Energy Executive, Mr. Kidd coordinates and integrates both installation (traditional as well as expeditionary) and operational energy programs and strategies.

Mr. Kidd graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1986 and served as an Infantry Officer until 1991. After receiving a Masters Degree in Public and Private Management from Yale University, he joined the United Nations in 1993 and served in a variety of international assignments, principally in war affected regions of the world. He joined the Department of State’s Bureau of Political Military-Affairs in 2001 where he served as Special Assistant, Office Director and Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary. In July of 2008 he joined the Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy where he was responsible for leading the Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP). In this position he helped to craft Federal level energy policy and assisted all Federal agencies in meeting statutory energy and sustainability requirements in order to promote energy security and environmental stewardship.

Mr. Joseph Bryan, Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Energy)

Joseph M. Bryan was appointed as Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Energy in November 2014. Mr. Bryan serves as the Secretariat focal point on all matters pertaining to the Department of Navy’s energy initiatives.

Mr. Bryan joined the Department of the Navy from the United States Senate where he served in several professional staff roles. Most recently, Mr. Bryan was the Investigations Team Lead for the Committee on Armed Services. During his tenure, the committee completed investigations into cyber intrusions affecting U.S. Transportation Command contractors, U.S. costs and allied contributions to support the U.S. military presence overseas, the presence of counterfeit electronic parts in the military supply chain, the use of private security contractors in Afghanistan, and the treatment of detainees in U.S. custody. From 2005 to January 2007, Mr. Bryan served on the Select Committee on Intelligence, where he advised Senator Carl Levin on legal, policy, and programmatic issues affecting the U.S. Intelligence Community. He also represented Senator Levin in legislative negotiations and investigations into pre- Iraq war intelligence.

Mr. Bryan received a bachelor’s of arts degree in 1991 from Fordham University and a master’s of arts from the University of Delaware in Urban Affairs and Public Policy, with a focus on energy and environmental policy.

Don serves as the Director for Energy Resource Management for the Defense Logistics Agency and received the 2009 Federal Energy Management Meritorious Service Award. A Cum Laude Engineering graduate with a Masters of Engineering Degree from

Brigham Young University, he is a former Army test pilot and flight test engineer. He is a Certified Energy Manager with 23 years active involvement performing energy audits and energy reduction project development. He has received the Secretary of the Army’s Energy and Water Management Award three times, and the Federal Energy Management Award three times. He has been instrumental in reducing the energy intensity for DLA from 18% above its 2003 baseline to 15% below the same baseline over a three year period.

Colonel Brian Magnuson, Commander, Marine Expeditionary Energy Office

COL Magnuson overseas the Marine Expeditionary Energy Office whose primary mission is the following: By 2025, we will deploy Marine Expeditionary Forces that can maneuver from the sea and sustain C4I and life support systems in place; the only liquid

fuel needed will be for mobility systems which will be more efficient than systems are today. To be the premier self-sufficient expeditionary force, instilled with a warrior ethos that equates the efficient use of vital resources with increased combat effectiveness. To change the way the Marine Corps employs energy and resources to increase combat effectiveness and reduce our need for logistics support.

Dr. Patrick J. Taylor, Ph.D., US Army Research Laboratory, Sensors and Electron Devices Directorate

Patrick Taylor received a Ph.D. from the University of Virginia in 1997. After a post-doctoral tenure with the National Academy of Sciences, Dr. Taylor accepted a Staff position at M.I.T. Lincoln Laboratory to develop thermoelectric technologies. Dr.

Taylor’s work on thermoelectrics contributed to the discovery of unusually large improvement in energy conversion by structuring the material on a nanometer scale, and that is one of the most highly cited work in the field of thermoelectrics. Dr. Taylor joined the Army Research Laboratory in 2003 and, in addition to continued thermoelectrics research, has leveraged the dual-use nature of these materials for infrared threat-warning applications. Since 2009, Dr. Taylor has been invited to give plenary talks at the Department of Energy’s annual international conferences on thermoelectrics. In 2010, Dr. Taylor was unanimously elected and currently serves as the national Vice-Chairman of the direct-thermal-to-electrical conversion panel of the IAPG for the US Government. In 2002, he received a grant award from M.I.T.’s advanced concepts committee and in 2009, Dr. Taylor received the Army RDA award for individual achievement in thermoelectrics. In addition to two book chapters and several patents in the field of thermoelectrics, Dr. Taylor has over 70 publications/presentations with more than 1500 citations.

COL (Ret) Paul Roege, Former Chief, Army Operational Energy Office

COL (Ret) Paul Roege Chairperson, Former Chief, Army Operational Energy Office U.S. Army

0930 WORKSHOP A: The role of Demand Response (Smart Response) for a Net Zero Nanogrid

While the process of sizing solar panels, batteries, or other generating and storage equipment for a given load pattern is well understood, to assume that usage patterns don’t or shouldn’t change in an off-grid application will result in an over-sized power system and poor allocation of resources. This workshop will explore the trade-offs and opportunities. Topics include

· Estimating load requirements

· HOMER: free software for micro-grid design

· End-use energy storage

· Solar Panel Orientation: Energy vs Capacity

· Optimal Demand Response strategies
