Full Day WEEC Workshops

The following full-day workshops will be held in conjunction with the World Energy Engineering Congress. Please click the appropriate link below for more information on each workshop.

The main WEEC Registration Link will enable to you include your choice of any of these workshops in your WEEC registration:

  • Using Smart Metering to Cut Energy Costs / One Day Workshop
    Tuesday, October 30, 2012 / 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
    ‘Smart’ meters (also called interval meters) measure and communicate electricity usage in near real time, showing how power is being used in short (e.g., 15-minute) periods. By accessing and understanding such data, facility managers, utilities, and contractors may cut costs by trimming peak demand, uncovering hidden energy waste, and employing lower cost utility and market-based electric rates. Through in-depth instruction, this seminar covers the basics of ‘smart’ metering, including its use in load management and other cost-cutting utility programs, and ways to cut costs even without such programs. Registration fee per attendee: $480
