Australian Energy User - EUAA Annual Conference

Tuesday 28th & Wednesday 29th October 2008 - Melbourne

Sofitel Melbourne, 25 Collins Street

 

The Energy Users Association of Australia (EUAA) Annual Conference is our premier event and has grown from strength to strength with excellent feedback from delegates.  We rotate our conference between Sydney, Brisbane & Melbourne each year. 

As always, our aim will be to ensure that the program contains quality speakers, including high profile international and local speakers, relevant topics, energy reform and policy developments, regulatory issues, greenhouse & environmental issues, energy efficiency, as well as practical end-user sessions and case studies.  There are also excellent opportunities to network with other delegates, including many of Australia's largest energy users, as well as retailers and other industry people.

If you are interested in speaking, sponsorship or would just like to find out more please get in contact with us.

Energy Price and Market Update Seminars (EPMU) - National

Our Energy Price & Market Update (EPMU) seminars is a 1-day event aimed at updating and informing our members, other energy users, market participants and others with an interest on electricity and gas prices (present and future), energy market conditions and topical energy issues.  Bringing people in the energy scene up-to-date and up-to-speed is the name!

Whilst our EPMU attracts many more customers than you would normally see at other energy events, one of the attractions is its ability to bring people from all segments of the energy sector together in one event.
