TEEX Electric Vehicle and Stored Energy Summit

As the world increasingly relies on electric vehicles and stored energy sources, we must plan, mitigate and prepare for potential incidents. As critical stakeholders, we must remain at the forefront of this endeavor. Prepare your organization by attending the 2nd Annual TEEX Electric Vehicle and Stored Energy Summit. This summit will aid in increased knowledge of the best practices for responding to these events and ensuring the safety of all and will facilitate a continued understanding of the unique requirements and best practices for preventing and responding to stored energy incidents by public safety policymakers and first responders.
