Senior executives of energy technology companies met with DEFG officials on May 18, 2006 in Washington, DC to review the state of the distributed and alternative energy sector. An overriding theme of the day was the commercialization of new technologies, and the development of a strategic marketing plan. DEFG and its partner, Market Strategies, Inc., presented the results of the DE market survey conducted last month.
