The UNH Energy Conference is sponsored by the UNH Energy Laboratory and will take place June 20-21, 2008 at Kingsbury Hall on the Durham campus of the University of New Hampshire. This conference is part of a campus-wide effort to promote sustainability on both a personal and societal level, via education, research, and environmentally sound practices on USNH campuses statewide. Expected attendees include engineers, scientists, industry leaders, public policy makers, environmentalists, legal experts, educators, students, and concerned citizens.

A variety of topics will be offered during the conference, with presentations on power-generation technologies, energy storage and distribution systems, transportation, energy efficient end-usage, and public-policy and economic issues. These presentations will be about 30 minutes long and will run during two parallel sessions (click here for a tentative schedule). Meanwhile, demonstrations of actual energy technologies will be provided throughout the day, both by students and professionals.
