Dear Smart Energy Week Exhibitor,

We wanted to provide you with an update on SPI, ESI and Smart Energy Week.

Due to Hurricane Ida, Louisiana and the City of New Orleans have both been declared a federal disaster area. While we have received information that our colleagues in New Orleans are safe, the city was subjected to severe damage, which will take weeks—if not longer—to restore. Our thoughts go out to those on the Gulf Coast who are recovering in the aftermath. We are thankful for the continued and tireless efforts of the first responders on the ground.

Unfortunately, in light of Hurricane Ida, SPI, ESI, and Smart Energy Week can no longer proceed in New Orleans in-person and will be canceled.

As an exhibitor you are the core of our event and vital to the progress of the clean energy industry. And like you, we were looking forward to getting back to in-person business this year at SPI, ESI and Smart Energy Week.

We know you have questions, and we are working as quickly as possible to share more information next week. In addition, you will receive communication about the booth selection process for the 2022 event September 19-22 in Anaheim, California.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. We look forward to communicating with you in the coming days. Have a good weekend.
