The TMG Utility Forum brings together a powerful network of utilities (water, electric, and gas), industry innovators, and thought leaders committed to customer-centric business transformation of the energy and utilities sector, sharing topics central to the evolution of today's utility.
Agenda topics for the 2023 TMG Utility Forum include discussions on affordable energy and sustainability, ensuring future sustainability goals are equitable amongst various socioeconomic communities and the path to funding sustainability goals. The 2023 TMG Utility Forum will also feature discussions on residential energy storage preparedness and highlight the customer and conservation programs that have been most successful.
“We are thrilled to serve as host for the 2023 TMG Utility Forum,” said Andy Fusco, Chief Strategy Officer at ElectriCities. “It is essential for utilities to come together to discuss best practices, industry trends, and challenges and opportunities they face. As more and more utility customers are asking their utilities to help them meet their sustainability objectives, this year’s theme is a timely one, and we look forward to the conversation.”
