The New Energy Economy

Please join the ISTC and our partners at the Great Lakes Symposium on Smart Grid and the New Energy Economy on Oct 18-19 in Chicago.  The Symposium will offer partipants the chance to learn about innovative economic development opportunities, strategies and technologies from around the country; participate in the Midwest Policy Summit; and explore consumer-focused programs at the Path to Perfect Power Track.

This important event will highlight Illinois’ contributions to the new energy economy and celebrate the collaboration already occurring in the Midwest region.  If you have not done so already, please register today.

To showcase Illinois’ commitment to the new energy economy, this edition of ISTC Catalyst is dedicated to the institutions and businesses in Illinois that are hard at work developing groundbreaking techniques and products that optimize energy generation, distribution and consumption. We invite you to read more about these initiatives below.
