Four Years of Breaking Down Industry Barriers
New York Energy Week helps break down barriers across the historically siloed sectors of the energy industry to catalyze the advancement of the energy industry. Unlike traditional business conferences, New York Energy Week’s distributed hosting model enables industry’s leaders to facilitate conversations on the key challenges and opportunities faced by the energy sector with other market participants, government agencies, research firms and other members of the energy community.
Harnessing New York City’s role as the hub of global commerce and finance, as well as New York state’s prominent position as a driver of energy policy innovation with its Reforming the Energy Vision (REV) initiative, New York Energy Week’s previous years have attracted thought leaders from major energy industry stakeholders including the US Department of Energy, Tesla, UK Trade & Investment, New York Green Bank, Google and OPower, to name a few.
