ETS16
There’s no better place than Zpryme’s flagship ETS16 to debate the state and future of energy. Our looking glass begins and ends with the stories of real people around the globe influencing the grand energy transition.
Join us on March 29 – 31 in Austin, Texas at the historic Paramount Theatre to experience a fascinating cross-section of established leaders and unsung heroes rewriting the next generation of energy.

Other influences, like the Clean Power Plan by President Obama and EPA, will impact utility business models, industry standards, regulations and policy.
There is chaos, but within the disorder comes great opportunity. ETS16 will explore the critical challenges facing the energy industry across a handful of important themes:
ETS16 focuses on transforming the Chaos. Experience the process.
