SUMMARY:Make Plans to Attend the 2nd Annual KBH Center Symposium: “The Future of the Oil and Gas Industry”
DESCRIPTION:The centerpiece of the Kay Bailey Hutchison Center for Energy\, Business & Law will be the Second Annual KBH Center Symposium\, which will take place on February 10\, 2017. The title of the symposium is “The Future of the Oil and Gas Industry: Peak Oil or Peak Demand – What’s the Horizon?” and will feature some of the nation’s leaders in the oil and gas sector. API President and CEO Jack Gerard will give the luncheon keynote address\, and industry leaders Scott Sheffield (Pioneer)\, David Baldwin (SCF Partners)\, Tom Petrie (Petrie Partners)\, and Sir Simon Mayall (Greenhill) will also speak. The oil and gas industry is grappling with external factors – lower commodity prices attributable to abundant new supplies of gas and oil\, coupled with slowed economic growth in China and elsewhere – that are putting pressure on the industry’s traditional business model. In addition\, the energy industry itself is changing as a result of improved drilling technologies\, the viability of alternative energy sources\, and global pressure to reduce carbon emissions. The industry experts at this conference will discuss these factors and others\, as well as their perspectives on the likely impacts of the new President’s energy policy on the industry. \nRead more about the Symposium here »

SUMMARY:AWE Board Member Lindsay Sander leads panel at NARUC
DESCRIPTION:AWE Boardmember Lindsay Sander lead an informative panel on PHMSA Nuts and Bolts at the NARUC Conference that recently concluded in Nashville. The panel covered Increases in U.S. natural gas production\, usage and commercialization of natural gas are changing the regulatory landscape for the U.S. natural gas industry and its customers. \nThe safe\, reliable and cost effective operation of the natural gas pipeline infrastructure in critical to our economy and security. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Pipeline Hazardous Material and Safety Administration’s mission is to protect people and the environment by advancing the safe transportation of energy and other hazardous materials that are essential to our daily lives. To do this\, PHMSA’s stated mission is to establish national policy\, set and enforce standards\, educate\, and conduct research to prevent incidents. PHMSA also prepares the public and first responders to reduce consequences if an incident does occur. In this two part Nashville moderated series we will explore all that is happening at PHMSA specifically as it concerns the proposed regulations and rules surrounding the safety of natural gas distribution and transmission pipelines. Attendees will be provided with the framework and tools necessary to explore and understand their respective roles and responsibilities in ensuring the delivery of natural gas to our communities safely\, reliably\, responsibly and affordably. \nView more information and download the panel presentation here: https://www.naruc.org/summermeetings/agenda/comm-gas/

SUMMARY:What Are You Doing With Your Power?
DESCRIPTION:I recently attended AWE’s Oct. 14  “Power Matters Conference” in Omaha. Nearly 75 women from the energy industry joined me in a quest to expand our knowledge about fuel sources\, energy markets and environmental issues. The speakers – whose biographies represented decades of higher education\, hundreds of professional risks and opportunities\, and the continuous paradigm of work/life balance – inspired me to do and be more than I am today as a woman working in the energy industry. \nSue Kelly\, APPA President & CEO\, encouraged me to become indispensable as a subject matter expert.  Susan Landahl\, senior vice president of Exelon Generation\, was cautious about subsidies for renewables while expressing compassion for the closure of Pilgrim where her career first began. And\, as she does in this video clip\, author and Survivor contestant Holly Hoffman inspired me to believe the leadership flame within each of us is an individual’s choice to light. \nAfter attending the “Power Matters Conference\,” I am resolved to use my power and influence to: \n1) Help others succeed. One of the best parts of my job as a manager is to give my staff opportunities\, encourage them to try new things\, and\, through their experiences\, help our corporate communications department achieve more. \n2) Ask questions\, especially when others don’t. Formerly a high school English teacher\, I enjoyed the dialogue I had with students who asked questions. I believe in the concept of “life-long learning” and advise others to be selfish in exploring that which interests you. \n3) See things from others’ points of view. I may not always agree with a colleague or friend’s political\, philosophical\, or management position\, but unless I try to understand why they think as they do\, I will only see my own. To get the best view of the world\, I need to open my window as far as I can. \nIf I do these three things with a sincere and meaningful heart\, I can’t help but become a better person. And isn’t that where the best power lies?

SUMMARY:Save the Date: Power Matters Conference on Oct. 14
DESCRIPTION:While energy issues are important to men and women alike\, women are playing a strategic role in the conversations. Some of these women will be featured at an upcoming conference on Oct. 14 at the DoubleTree Hotel in Omaha. \nSponsored by the Association of Women in Energy\, a national organization for professional women\, the Power Matters Conference will debut with informational sessions about choices and challenges facing various fuel resources in the Midwest. Experts in the areas of renewables\, nuclear\, coal\, the energy markets\, environmental regulation and organizational leadership will headline the event. Speakers include executives from Exelon\, Tenaska\, The Energy Authority\, American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity and the American Public Power Association. An agenda and registration information can be found here. \n“What is the future of coal and nuclear in producing electricity? What role does distributed generation play? How does the market work as our energy resources change? These are topics of interest to private and public energy businesses throughout the Midwest\,” said AWE President Becky Motal. “Regardless the fuel source\, those who generate\, regulate\, and market it have shared interest in how it affects our economy and our respective industries. The Power Matters Conference gives women and men the opportunity to gain knowledge on a broad spectrum of energy issues from recognized leaders shaping the energy debate.” \nRounding out the conference is motivational speaker Holly Hoffman\, finalist in Season 21 of Survivor. Utility sponsors of the event include the Nebraska Public Power District\, The Energy Authority and Tenaska Marketing Ventures. For sponsorship opportunities\, click here.
