ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 5, 2002

The 5th annual Business Energy Solutions Conference & Expo is set to take place, November 20-21, 2002, at the new Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center in Orlando, Florida.

Presented by the Association of Energy Engineers (AEE), along with a cross-section of sponsors including the Department of Energy, Environmental Protection Agency, and other industry associations, the forum is designed to help commercial, industrial & institutional end users lower their costs, upgrade their facilities, and enhance productivity.

According to AEE's Director of Trade Shows, Brian Douglas, "The BESE show is more important than ever before. Corporations are striving to reduce their operating expenses at a feverish pace. Energy Management strategies have proven to be effective in reducing energy costs and having a positive return on investment (R.O.I.) over the life cycle of the project. Furthermore, employers can upgrade their existing facilities, increase worker productivity, have a positive impact on the environment, reduce dependence on foreign oil, and enhance their financial bottom-line. Everyone wins!"

Based on past show results, many of the attendees are end user customers (commercial, industrial, institutional, national chain accounts, and government); consultants and P.E.s; energy managers, facility managers, and VPs of operations; utility customer representatives, energy service and facility outsourcing professionals; Certified Professionals (such as Certified Energy Managers); and product representatives with great success stories to tell. Combined, they are responsible for making new & retrofit upgrades happen, reducing energy costs, and improving overall operational efficiency. They help to create jobs and keep the economy going.
