The Powerful Facility Energy Conference (PFEC) is an annual conference sponsored by Puget Sound Energy, Seattle City Light, Snohomish County PUD, and the Seattle Chapter of the International Facility Management Association. The conference, aimed at facility managers and owners, building operations and engineering staff, architects, engineers, and property developers, offers practical energy solutions and opportunities to gain knowledge, connections, and success regarding energy efficiency projects.
Attendees learn strategies to improve energy performance and sustain operational cost savings. Conference content provides the business community with the information necessary to find partnerships and solutions that save energy and money, improve comfort, and enhance productivity in their facilities. A series of three breakout sessions are offered throughout the day. Vendor display opportunities are available for companies interested in showcasing their products and services before an estimated crowd of 300 facility professional attendees. Welcome breakfast, lunch with a keynote speaker, and reception are all included.
