Founder and Chair, Annual Pitt Electric Power Industry Conference (EPIC)
Description: The Pitt Electric Power Industry Conference (EPIC) was initiated in 2006 as an opportunity for expanded networking between electric power and energy engineering students within the Swanson School of Engineering, and professionals within the electric power and energy industry sector. As time has progressed, the conference has expanded, allowing opportunities to showcase relevant University research, to invite feedback from the professional community, to highlight trends and emerging technologies within the industry, and to provide a forum for discussion of regional developments related to energy. Several purposes benefit attendees including industry-university collaborations and networking, as well as industry-to-industry relationship development. Bringing these communities together, along with relevant government organizations that are represented at the conference, such as the Dept. of Energy, provides a tremendous opportunity to develop regional partnerships that can bring national contributions
History: The EPIC event was established in 2006, hosting six industry participants (at the time only regional electric utilities) and approximately 40 attendees among students and faculty. The original conference was hosted in a classroom setting, and while small, created the right environment to establish the dialogue and networking that was recognized as having potential to be expanded upon in future years. Also, at this first event seven years ago, each industry attended eventually hired one of the Pitt students in attendance that very next year either as a full time employee, summer intern, or cooperative program student. The conference has grown tremendously since then, and has expanded to be held over two days with key note addresses, industry-government-academic panel sessions, invited technical paper presentations, graduate student research poster sessions and mini-symposium, and workshops on specific on-going grants or potential research focus areas, and a popular evening networking event and exhibit. Over the past years, the 2011, 2012, and 2013 two-day events have included upwards of 30 industry participants and approximately 225 attendees. The November 2014 event was the 9th conference in this annual series, held November 17-18, with 248 attendees representing a total of 72 regional, national, and international organizations. The 2014 event also included 14 corporate sponsors and 30 exhibitors.
