The 2010 CATEE Conference is the seventh in a series of air quality and energy efficiency stakeholder conferences developed to engage clean air and energy efficiency stakeholders in a meaningful discussion about making our future cleaner and more energy efficient. This conference will bring together local leaders, state policy makers, businesses, researchers with energy and environmental advocates for a series of interactive presentations and forums designed to stimulate innovative, market-driven problem-solving. 

The Hot and Humid Symposium provides an opportunity for upper-level energy managers, building managers, architects, designers, engineers, consultants, utility representatives, energy service companies, code officials, suppliers, researchers and others to exchange information on technologies, strategies, and programs to improve the efficiency of building systems in hot and humid climates.
