The Hot Water Forum is dedicated to evaluating the three fundamentals of the efficient hot water system: heating water, distributing it with low losses, and using it with efficient fixtures and practices. This conference will bring together manufacturers, water, gas, and electric utilities, government and other program and other policy specialists, and other industry representatives to learn from each other and explore the potential of increasing efficiency of hot water generation, distribution, and use.

The future of electricity is on the fast track. With technologies like smart grid, electric vehicles or increasingly clean power generation, the nation's electric utility companies are reinventing our industry. Utilities are steadily implementing smart new technology to empower their customers to manage their energy use and become more efficient. Transportation in all its forms is moving toward being powered by electricity. And, the confluence of electric and information technologies is promising to revolutionize the technologies of this century. The future starts with electricity.
