Energy Marketing Conferences (EMC) Announces Carbon-Neutral Commitment for EMC22 in Las Vegas
NEW YORK, NY, USA – August 28, 2024 — Energy Marketing Conferences (EMC) proudly announces its commitment to achieving carbon-neutral and sustainable excellence for the 22nd Energy Marketing Conference (#EMC22), scheduled for September 23-24, 2024, at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. This year’s conference, in part through a sponsorship by Shell Energy, will purchase carbon credits to offset a total of 73 metric tons (MT) of carbon emissions associated with the event and its attendees and will utilize environmentally friendly cups and water bottles, marking a significant advancement in environmental responsibility.
EMC’s Carbon Neutrality Initiative
To ensure the integrity of its carbon offsetting efforts, EMC employs a rigorous program where 100% of the carbon offsets are verified against globally recognized standards by independent third-party verifiers. These standards include the Verified Carbon Standard, Gold Standard, American Carbon Registry, CSA Group, and the Climate Action Reserve, guaranteeing the highest quality of carbon offsets. Each carbon offset represents a reduction of one metric ton (2,205 lbs) of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions, achieved through projects specifically designed to mitigate CO2 emissions.
Jack Doueck, founder of Energy Marketing Conferences, expressed the organization’s dedication to addressing climate change. “As leaders in the competitive energy sector, it is our responsibility to contribute positively to this global challenge,” said Doueck. “Our approach includes purchasing carbon offsets for all attendee travel, hotel emissions, and utilizing environmentally friendly materials. We are excited to be able to do this and are appreciative of Shell Energy and Spinakr for sponsoring our Sustainable Excellence efforts.”
EMC22: The Future of Competitive Energy
Celebrating over a decade of engaging, empowering, and educating the competitive energy community, EMC22 is themed “Retail Energy 2.0; The Future of Competitive Energy.” The conference will feature 50 sponsors and a full Exhibitor Hall with 40 leading service companies. Attendees can look forward to ten pre-conference sessions, five interactive panels, and various networking opportunities, including breakfast, luncheon, breaks, and two receptions. The event anticipates over 400 attendees from across the nation, offering a premier platform for learning, networking, and empowerment within the competitive energy sector.
