Energy Central Launches Strategic Solutions for Transmission Professionals

AURORA, Colo., Oct. 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Understanding the rapidly growing transmission industry just got easier with today's launch of Energy Central's TransmissionHub — an interactive online intelligence hub for the North American transmission market — and a corresponding series of TransForum regional conferences beginning in late November.

Within $80 billion in transmission investments expected in the next decade, Energy Central created TransmissionHub to serve as the industry's only channel and most comprehensive resource focused exclusively on this growing segment.

TransmissionHub: TransmissionHub provides premium content in a variety of formats to meet the diverse needs of its members, including: comprehensive online news, intelligence and databases; daily and weekly news summaries; and monthly interactive Web seminars.

"TransmissionHub serves as a virtual 'research arm' for any transmission-focused organization," said Randy Rischard, vice president of data and analysis products for Energy Central, and the leading architect of TransmissionHub. "Whether you're a grid planner, builder, operator, regulator or technology company, TransmissionHub provides low-cost, high-value strategic input to help improve your competitive edge."

As the chief designer of TransmissionHub, Rischard brings more than 17 years of experience in the energy news and data market and is responsible for developing many of today's leading energy-information products for the North American gas, power and coal industries.

TransForum Regional Conferences: Complementing TransmissionHub are three regional TransForum conferences, providing regional updates on key geographic issues, transmission-focused discussions, and unmatched networking opportunities.

"TransForum will help transmission professionals understand what is and isn't working to avoid costly mistakes and to develop well-informed plans for the future," said Rischard.

TransForumEAST runs Nov. 30 through Dec. 2, 2011, in Washington, D.C. Details for TransForumWEST and TransForumTEXAS will be announced soon.
