SAN FRANCISCO, CA – August 25, 2011 – Spintelligent, a Division of Clarion Events, today announced that the Smart Energy International Conference and Exposition will be held at the Hyatt Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco, from October 24-26, 2011. In addition to Smart Energy International, co-located summits include Smart Cars 2011, Smart Homes 2011 and Smart Storage 2011.

Smart Energy International is the only global industry event that takes a utility-centric look beyond the smart grid to define the wider benefits of smart energy to the community and innovative stakeholders that feed into the grid, from storage and renewables to electric vehicles and smart homes.

Whether one is a newcomer to, or a veteran in, the world of smart energy and utilities, attendees will gain strategic insights at this event that are essential to the future of smarter energy use and progressive utilities. Summit attendees will meet more than 500 senior industry professionals from regulators, IOUs, municipalities, technology vendors, industry bodies, and key executives in smart home, EV and energy storage.

"After a very successful Smart Energy International 2010 in Silicon Valley, we can only look forward to a more engaging, more successful program this year," said Mark Walker, VP North America for Spintelligent, the company behind Smart Energy International. "Not only do we have an exceptionally strong conference program, our participating exhibiting companies will be showcasing products and services to help utilities with their smart grid initiatives."
