As we look forward to the Smart Energy Decisions Renewable Energy Sourcing Forum in Ponte Vedra, Florida, June 15-17, let's take a look back at our most recent event, Accelerate Philly.

As our first city-specific event, Accelerate Philly brought together large electric power users from the 11-county Philadelphia region, including commercial, industrial, institutional and government sectors, along with suppliers and utilities. Developed in association with the Philadelphia Energy Authority, the event showcased best practices and opportunities to make the city's bold energy vision a reality. Accelerate Philly was held at the Logan Hotel in Philadelphia on December 9-10, 2019.
