National Grid was an important sponsor enabling portions of the event to move forward on account of their Green Apple Day of Service mini grant to help the students of Northeastern.

The Conference was attended by over 100 professionals, allowing students at NU and the professionals to share insights and collaborate on today's top energy issues. The conference had a couple of tracks and content throughout the day.
