Opening Reception
Opening Reception at The Sugar Mill | Monday, May 22, 5pm – 7pm
Follow the energy of the conference grand opening to The Sugar Mill, located across the street from the convention center, to celebrate a decade of opportunity. The opening reception showcased local musicians, food, beads, and New Orleans spirit.
The opening reception was sponsored by Avangrid.
Private Group Tour: Port Fourchon
At the end of the conference, a private group was able to tour Port Fourchon, which is known as the premier port facility supporting oil and gas operations in the Gulf of Mexico. Now, Fourchon is headed toward a role as a leading service supply port for all forms of offshore energy, including wind energy. The site is primed to help service the burgeoning offshore wind marketplace in the Gulf of Mexico.
Cajun Swamp Airboat Tour
Attendees had the chance to register for an exhilarating journey into the mystical swamps and bayous of southern Louisiana. Here they had the opportunity to see exotic tropical plants and wildlife only found in the Louisiana wetlands.
Power Networking
Power Networking
This networking opportunity exceeded our expectations and sold out before the event began! All attendees had the opportunity to chat with potential business providers, and set up a 10-minute meeting during this two-hour time block.
The goal of this session was to allow clean energy professionals the chance to gain business prospects or cultivate existing relationships during a facilitated matchmaking event.
Forever New Orleans Tour
A private tour of the French Quarter, Lakeview, & Uptown neighborhoods. | Thursday, May 25 2pm – 5pm
Our story began in the area where the French founded New Orleans almost 300 years ago: the historic and charming French Quarter. Attendees saw famous landmarks and learned the fascinating history behind the unique city. Attendees saw City Park & Bayou St. John and travelled along St. Charles Avenue as well.
As our story ends, we realized that this incredible city is one of spirit, hope, and rebirth!
Fun Run 5K
200 people participated in a 5K jog or walk around the French Quarter.
RNWBL Golf Tournament
On Monday May 22, dozens of attendees joined RNWBL at the CLEANPOWER Golf Open. The tournament was held at the Stonebridge Golf Club of New Orleans.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion-Focused Events
While sessions throughout the conference incorporated DEI themes, the events below were additional DEI-focused opportunities to really home in on these critical industry topics.
Energy Transition for All Luncheon
Attendees heard from company leaders at various stages of their journeys to integrate DEI into their business practices. Ticket sales benefited Get Lit, Stay Lit, a New Orleans effort to use solar-powered microgrids as a means to help communities withstand extreme weather events.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion (DEI) in Action
BP and WRISE proudly sponsored the DEI in Action reception, which offered the opportunity to meet WRISE Fellows and learn about the program.
Veterans Happy Hour
