We Did It!

We Got the Band Back Together!

We'll be honest, we didn't know what our first in-person event would be like, especially after not having one for nearly two years.

Because of the 833 who joined us in person and online, IDEA2021 was amazing.

Seeing old friends reconnect and new relationships forged after a year and half of not being able to do was what we all needed. Discovering new technologies in the exhibit hall and learning from so many expert speakers and panelists proved enlightening. Quite simply, it never felt better to get together.

Over the past year and a half, our industry has weathered many storms, both literally and figuratively. After IDEA2021, we feel that we are more prepared than ever to "Power the Future" of district energy.

If you missed IDEA2021, you can still enjoy the incredible content offered through the end of the year. Session recordings and handouts are now available and the Virtual Exhibit Hall remains open, register and stream content at your leisure.
