The Association of Energy Engineers' mission is "to promote the scientific and educational interests of those engaged in the energy industry and to foster action for Sustainable Development."

In service of that mission, the AEE is gathering again this year to help members of the business, industrial and governmental communities decide how best to affordably, securely and reliably supply power to their facilities.

Topics at the 24th GLOBALCON 2013 will include facility energy efficiency improvement and cost control; renewable and alternative energy applications; on-site and distributed power generation; integrated building automation and energy management tools; new lighting technologies; efficient HVAC and smart grid building systems; boiler and steam system efficiency; project cost management strategies; and much more.

Although China's GDP growth appears to have cooled a bit in recent quarters, the country is still growing at a healthy clip and working hard to supply the energy required to power that growth.

Given its heavy reliance on coal for power generation - which is expected to continue increasing - China is getting serious about renewable energy for environmental reasons and simply because it will need an "all of the above" energy strategy to keep its factories running and its cities lit.

The Chinese Renewables: Grid Integration and Financing Workshop will feature two expert panels that will deal with practical issues associated with adding significant renewable energy capacity; Panel 1 - Plugging in Renewables: Grid Integration and Panel 2 - Financing Renewables: The View from the US and China.
