New to procuring renewable energy? Struggling to make progress? Want to get up to speed quickly? Join us for an in-depth, interactive learning experience for energy customers that covers the fundamentals of the utility-scale, off-site transaction process. Each attendee has the opportunity to learn from fellow energy customers about each stage of the transaction process and avoid common pitfalls. CEBA staff and subject matter experts from the industry, including experienced energy customers as well as legal and procurement experts, will serve as faculty members. Attendees will work in teams in a highly interactive facilitated environment and identify common concerns and solutions that pertain to their company’s situation. All discussions will be kept confidential, so attendees may ask all types of questions—simple or complex. Ideal Boot Camp participants are those new to the renewable procurement transaction process or internal supporters from other departments of your company.

CEBA Energy Customer Boot Camp is only available for CEBA members.

The September 19-21 Boot Camp will be held in Boulder, Colorado at the historic Colorado Chautauqua. Located at the base of the Flatirons and surrounded by Boulder County open space, the Colorado Chautauqua is one of only 26 National Historic Landmarks in the state of Colorado and one of the few remaining chautauquas in the United States. It is the only chautauqua west of the Mississippi that has continuously operated with its original structures intact, largely used for their original purposes. 

Attendees must provide proof of vaccination or a negative PCR test 24 hours in advance of September 19 in order to attend in-person Boot Camp. Read the full COVID event policy here. We will follow the guidance of the CDC and the State of Colorado and will inform attendees about any mask requirements or changes in policy in advance of Boot Camp. 

Attendees are expected to participate for all three days. Due to the interactive nature and the content design of Boot Camp, we do not allow attendees to attend half of the training or only participate in specific sessions. We understand work calls and other obligations do come up, but encourage all attendees to plan to be actively participating for the entirety of the training.
