Penton's Energy & Buildings New Event, "The Energy Times," to Address the Changing Energy Landscape on Thursday, March 19 in Washington, D.C.

NEW YORK, March 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- On Thursday, March 19, Penton's Energy & Buildings will host The Energy Times Executive Briefing, a unique forum that brings together utilities and large energy consumers to educate and inform the full energy value chain on pending energy-related legislation and provide insight on what thought leaders are doing in order to adapt to these new energy requirements.  The one-day executive energy briefing will take place at the Hyatt Regency on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.

The event will address key industry issues including: The Utility Business Model, The Policy Challenge and The Customer. 

The Energy Times has gathered a respected panel of presenters to bring to the forefront the realities facing utilities and large energy consumers in the upcoming decades including:

• Audrey Zibelman, New York State Public Service Commission Chair
• Steven Bushby, U.S. Department of Commerce
• Ralph Izzo, PSEG Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
• Karen Lefkowitz, Pepco Holdings, Vice President, Business Transformation

"Utilities must reinvent their business models to maintain profitability and commercial energy users need to be informed and educated on subsidies for renewables, pending legislation and innovative technologies," said Marty Rosenberg, Director of Content for The Energy Times. "The challenge of giving energy users the information they need, and connecting them with the vendors equipped to address their needs, is profound. At the same time, utilities worth tens of billions of dollars are looking for new ways to connect with customers. We are thrilled to offer this forum to address both sectors and getting them talking to each other."
