Annual Conference and Trade Show
The
annual conference and trade show is IDEA's largest meeting
of the year and has been held every year since 1909. This
conference addresses a host of the most current issues in
the district energy industry. Anyone interested in district
energy, distributed generation and combined heat and power
will benefit from attending this comprehensive conference.
Three
days of presentations are combined with IDEA's best vendor
opportunity of the year -- the full-scale trade show. The
trade show showcases the newest technologies and equipment
in the district energy industry, allowing attendees to meet
with vendors and suppliers. Numerous social activities and
meal functions complement the educational program. The event
closes with the traditional chairman's banquet, signaling
the start of a new year for IDEA's board
of directors and association. For more information, please

Distribution Workshop
The
Distribution Workshop is organized every 18 months or so by IDEA's
Distribution
Forum. The workshop's goal is to educate the people charged
with the day-to-day operation, maintenance and construction
of district
energy distribution systems. This two-and-a-half day workshop provides
an opportunity for district energy personnel to exchange experiences
and ideas regarding distribution issues. Attendees learn practical
operating information that can be used in their everyday work
while learning from and sharing with their peers. A technical
tour of a district energy system is typically included so participants
can see the host's system in operation. For more information,

trends and exchange experiences and ideas with their peers.
Under the direction of IDEA's Marketing
Forum, the workshop allows marketing and sales professionals
in the district energy industry to network and share experiences,
ideas and innovations to assist them in the development of
their own markets. During this two-day workshop, the marketing
forum participants also assist in developing the vision for
the association and the district energy industry. For
