WELCOME

A new generation of utlity engineers is overcoming unprecedented challenges to find Solutions to Building the Grid of Tomorrow.

The Electrical Transmission and Substation Structures Conference is widely recognized as a one-of-a-kind conference that focuses specifically on transmission and substation structure issues to help utility engineers meet the daily challenges of today's high-stakes energy environment. This must-attend event offers an ideal setting for learning and networking for utilities and suppliers.

You won't want to miss:

• In-Depth Technical Sessions presented by leading industry experts on topics including Aesthetic Design Principles; Construction Challenges; Emerging Technologies; Foundations; LIfeline Reliability and Performance; Line and Substation Siting; Line Design, Re-rating and Upgrading; Extreme Loading Events; Managing Aging Infrastructure; Project Management; Regulatory Compliance; Structural Analysis and Design; Substation Design and Upgrading.
• A dynamic Pre-Conference Workshop on Design Criteria and Load Requirements for Transmission Line Structures.
• Networking events where you can exchange ideas with colleagues from around the world. This year the Conference will feature a  special 2012 Election Night Reception!
• An Exhibit Hall packed with state-of-the-art products and services from leading industry suppliers.
• Tours and demonstrations at American Electric Power's transmission facilities where you can view EMF and Corona demonstrations, EHV hot-line maintenance, and hands-on substation operations all in the same day!

Can You Afford to Wait?

Held only every three years, if you miss the 2012 Conference, you'll have to wait until 2015!

Mark your calendars now and plan to attend this forum where transmission and substation engineers can share technical knowledge and explore emerging issues, while bringing new engineers up to speed on core issues.
