Net Zero Cities: Collaboration in electricity markets

LOVELAND — Colorado electrical utilities are joining forces like never before to match supply and demand across a broader region. Whether this will result in more stable prices — or availability — of electricity remains to be seen.

BizWest’s Net Zero Cities event, held in conjunction with Confluence — Colorado Water Conference, will examine that question in a panel discussion beginning 1:50 p.m. on July 26.

BizWest has combined its Confluence event with Net Zero Cities, a conference that explores key issues about climate change and sustainability. Confluence topics dominate the morning, with Net Zero Cities topics explored in the afternoon.
