EFI Member Forums

For almost three decades, EFI forums have provided a place for the world's energy community to keep abreast of developments in a wide range of emerging energy technologies.

Drawing upon the knowledge of experts in industry, government, and research organizations, EFI forums strive to give employees of its member companies an unbiased assessment of how technology advances, public policies, and other factors are likely to influence the commercial prospects for important energy processes under development worldwide.

The association's three annual meetings feature authoritative and up-to-date briefings from key stakeholders in the industry about a wide range of new technologies, processes and energy resources under development worldwide, and an opportunity to participate in the informal professional network that the group has sustained for almost three decades.

Members-only, small group meetings allow for excellent continuing education and networking opportunities in a relaxed, informal setting.
