The California Energy Commission's Public Interest Energy
Research (PIER) Program cordially invites you to the California
Energy and Air Quality Conference, to take place on October
29-30, 2008 in Diamond Bar, California.   The Energy Commission,
the California Air Resources Board, the South Coast Air Quality
Management District, and the Bay Area Air Quality Management
District are co-sponsoring this conference.

This two day conference in Southern California will help to
bring public awareness to the current issues and activities
underway in the area of improving air quality and its relation
to energy production and use, and spur innovative solutions
towards a clean and productive future. In spite of
groundbreaking efforts to reduce air pollution over the last
three decades, California still has some of the worst air
quality in the nation. At the same time, California is also
experiencing continual increases in the state’s energy demand.
By providing improved research, tools, and innovative
techniques, the Air Quality Group of the Public Interest Energy
Research Environmental Area (PIER-EA) at the California Energy
Commission is working to improve air quality while enabling
reliable, affordable and efficient energy.

This conference will discuss the current issues and activities
underway in the area of improving air quality and it's relation
to energy production and use, including:


   * Distributed Generation
   * Building Characteristics and Indoor Environmental  
     Quality
   * Innovative Approaches to Electricity and Air Quality
     Planning
   * Future Research Directions for Informed Policy Making
   * Air Quality and Natural Gas
   * Alternative Transportation Strategies - Air Quality and
     Climate Change

The conference is geared towards mid-level managers of energy
and air quality regulatory agencies as well as researchers, and
industry such as power producers and equipment manufacturers.
