Senior Decision-Makers Strategize on
How the Integration of Renewables and Regional
Planning are Driving Transmission Investments
and Business in the West


Hear from 5 Real World Case Studies

The Transmission Executive Forum West, September 20, 2010, will this year address "New Paradigm for Energy Resources--Impacts of Renewables on Transmission Planning, Operations and Innovations." The threat of global warming is driving the implementation of a very different energy infrastructure for the 21st Century: incorporating large amounts of wind and other variable energy resources is already having a significant impact on transmission operations, reliability, planning, siting and investment today. What are the new business opportunities and challenges for utilities, developers and equipment providers? Leading transmission executives and regulators will explore this paradigm shift, potential technical solutions and investment options to meet the radically different grid requirements of tomorrow.

At Transmission Summit West 2010, September 21-22, 2010, the industry's key leaders will provide a detailed explanation of how they are responding to the changing face of transmission development, including the interconnection of variable energy resources, determining benefits and allocating costs of system upgrades, permitting on federal and tribal lands, and the policy and regulatory challenges of implementing HVDC and other advanced technologies. Most importantly, it will provide a window on the changing face of transmission development, reviewing and discussing the business models, financing strategies, and practical lessons being learned in siting, permitting, project and construction management of new transmission builds.
