Big Ten and Friends Utility Conference | Past Event

Join us at the 2026 Big Ten and Friends Utility Conference | Virginia Guesthouse & Conference Center at the University of Virginia | Charlottesville, VA

Big Ten & Friends brings together utility and facility leaders from across the Big Ten and partner universities for one of higher ed’s most candid conversations on campus energy strategy, and this year, Optimum Energy is on the agenda.

Our own Sales Director David Dykes will be presenting The Efficiency Double-Play: Cheaper Power, Fewer Problems, showing how real-time data and sequence-of-operations refinement can deliver a measurable reduction in kWh consumption and a decrease in reactive maintenance. Attendees will leave with a framework for identifying low-cost, high-impact optimization targets on their own campus. Senior Business Developer Ryan Sheard and VP of Sales & Marketing Eric Toback will also be on site all four days. Register today. We look forward to seeing you there.
