In the face of nature’s most formidable forces, professionals like Tim Berrigan(guest) and Mike Nemer (host) stand as testaments to resilience and adaptability. Their recent discussions not only highlight the personal challenges posed by hurricanes but also underscore the relentless pace of their industry. Despite the disruptions, they forge ahead, planning for conferences and events that shape the future of energy and technology.
The upcoming NAEMA event is a beacon of innovation, promising to delve into the intricacies of artificial intelligence and data centers. The event, already drawing a crowd of 300, is set to feature a panel discussion in Nashville and a course on locational marginal pricing by our friend Dr. Steve Burchett from Power Analytics Software. Beyond the intellectual rigor, the event promises social engagement with whiskey tours, a golf outing, and a Texas hold’em game, fostering community and camaraderie among attendees.
The growth of the organization from 100 to over 220 members is a testament to the value of the North American Energy Marketing Association (NAEMA). It offers unparalleled benefits, such as access to contracts, a network of contacts, and platforms for RFPs and job postings, empowering members to navigate the complex energy landscape.
As hurricane Helene approaches, concerns for safety in the wake of storms remain paramount, with Mike expressing worry for Steve’s well-being in Tallahassee. It’s a reminder that amidst the pursuit of progress, the welfare of everyone remains at the heart of the community.
The energy sector’s journey is one of constant evolution, facing down the chaos of nature with unwavering spirit and an eye towards a future where technology and human ingenuity converge. Events like the one in Nashville are not just gatherings; they are crucibles where ideas spark and collaborations forge, driving the industry towards new horizons.
NAEMA’s 2025 conferences include East Meets West in Vail, the spring conference in Scottsdale, and the fall conference in Kansas City. A special thanks goes out to NAEMA’s conference host Arroyo Investors, Xcel Energy, Amperon, and Evergy.
