It is increasingly important for ESCOs and the companies that support their work to come together to discuss the opportunities and challenges facing the industry and to be introduced to services and technologies that can drive high-impact projects.

The exhibition hall will feature 40+ exhibitors showcasing advanced technologies and solutions that deliver measurable results in ESCO projects.

“R3 offers an opportunity for the industry to come together at an important time for the energy services market,” said Wes Walker, CEO of Veregy and Board Chair of NAESCO. “This conference is about strengthening the partnerships and sharing the ideas that will help us continue delivering results for our customers and the communities they serve.”

R3 will draw a diverse audience, including energy service companies, energy efficiency contractors, financiers, state/local/federal government representatives, law firms, and consultants. Attendees can look forward to impactful speaking sessions, engaging networking events, and an awards ceremony recognizing exemplary projects from member companies that show the full potential of public-private partnerships.
