The 2008 UNLV Renewable Energy Symposium was presented by the Office of Strategic Energy Programs and co-sponsored by the Division of Research and Graduate Studies on August 20, 2008 on the UNLV campus.
The event focused on renewable energy production in Nevada, the US Southwest, and renewable research projects nationwide. It was a great opportunity for anyone working on renewable projects to collaborate with others in this field and exchange information. Over 230 individuals attended the event this year.

ACCOLADES/TESTIMONIALS
On behalf of everyone here at the Center for Energy Research, I would like to thank you for all your work in organizing the Clean Energy Summit and Energy Symposium. Both events were extremely interesting and overwhelmingly successful. We were all very impressed by the quality of the presenters and their breadth of knowledge. Congratulations on two great conferences!

"I would like to extend my appreciation and thanks to all who helped make this event possible. It was exciting to get a glimpse into the research and practical work that is being carried out in the state and especially at UNLV. I have often commented that UNLV projects are not showcased nearly enough. Wouldn't it be great if we could compact these presentations into programs that could be presented to our middle and high school students? Perhaps, if I had been shown these kinds of presentations done with the enthusiasm of the ones I witnessed yesterday, I might have chosen an engineering/science track for my studies. Fortunately I do love the track I did choose but nonetheless, I am envious of the type of work you and your colleagues are doing. Thanks again and I would hope that maybe this could become an annual event." -Steven Farinella, UNLV Director of Technology Support Services,
