10th Caribbean Renewable Energy Forum
November 7-9, 2018 | Miami, Florida
|
|
|
OOCUR is pleased to be a partner for the 10th Caribbean Renewable Energy Forum (CREF), the largest annual gathering of the Caribbean energy market. Presented by New Energy Events, CREF draws more than 500 attendees from 50 countries. In the decade since CREF was launched, the Caribbean has transitioned away from discussions around enabling a sustainable energy matrix, to one focused squarely on how to procure, finance and build world-class clean energy projects in the region. From utility scale to distributed generation, storage to microgrids, financing to procurement, energy efficiency to LNG, CREF is where the market meets and the discussion evolves. .
