Highlights from September Conferences on Water, Energy, and Transporation

This month, our team had the opportunity to attend three excellent conferences – the Colorado WaterWise Water Conservation Symposium, the Rocky Mountain Utility Exchange, and the Forth Roadmap Conference. Our attendance at these conferences aligns with our mission to accelerate equitable solutions to the climate crisis, providing opportunities for us to share and scale our project insights, while keeping up with cutting-edge trends and key industry developments. Most importantly these conferences offer valuable networking opportunities to build partnerships for implementing equitable climate solutions.
