TWO NATIONAL EVENTS:
We have expanded our event offerings to the waterpower industry. Our long-standing Waterpower Week is the premier policy-focused national event which takes place every spring in Washington, DC. The Clean Currents Conference + Tradeshow is the industry’s all-encompassing event where the waterpower industry comes together each fall.
Both events play key roles in connecting and educating the North American waterpower industry.
One question we’ve heard is:
“How are these two events different?”
