The Idaho Statesman reports that “the inaugural Intermountain Energy Summit is headlined by U.S. Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz, who will speak alongside federal politicians, energy experts and private industry leaders, who will lead panel discussions. The focus: the future of energy policy and production in North America.”  

“The conference Tuesday and Wednesday will be different than attendees may be used to, Idaho Falls Mayor Rebecca Casper said.”  

“‘It’s not going to be workshops where you learn something and go home,’ Casper said. ‘It’s more – what did you bring? What are your thoughts given the data that was just presented?'”
