Mark your calendars! As your busy social schedule begins to fill up, wanted to pass along a couple of “Keep the Date” notes for you. This year should be a pivotal one in DOD Energy. The organizations are set and the positions filled. The strategies have been written and revised or are under revision. Lets hear what they have to say! 1. The Solar Energy Consortium (TSEC). On January 24th, TSEC is convening their third annual solar CEO conference. conference.tsec@gmail.com 2. 6th Annual Military Energy Alternatives Conference: Feb 2011 3. 5th Alternative Energy NOW Shades of Green Resort, Lake Buena Vista, Florida February 23 - 24, 2011 4. And the granddaddy, GovEnergy in Cincinnati, Ohio, August 7-10. More to follow as they develop.
