The two-day program (preceded by one day of pre-conference workshops) convenes 600+ decision-makers from federal and state governments, Fortune 500 corporate energy buyers, utilities, independent power generators, renewable energy developers, and power purchase agreement (PPA) specialists to discuss voluntary renewable energy procurement strategies, technology deployment pathways, policy mechanisms, and financing structures. Sessions address corporate sustainability commitments and net-zero targets, renewable energy certificate (REC) trading mechanisms and market liquidity, virtual power purchase agreements (VPPAs), traditional long-term PPAs, grid integration challenges, emerging markets for energy storage and grid edge resources, and policy pathways supporting corporate renewable adoption.
