About RE+ Events
RE+ Events is a fast-paced, high-energy organization with a highly motivated team and an ambitious agenda. We play a pivotal role in supporting national energy independence by producing the renewable energy industry's most influential events — convening the people, partners, and ideas accelerating the clean energy transition.
We are a fully remote organization. Our team works from across the country, brought together by a shared commitment to the work we do and the industries we serve. We've built a remote culture that values clear communication, intentional connection, and trust — and we travel together for events, offsites, and the moments that matter most in person.
We design events that drive measurable industry growth. Proceeds from our events are reinvested into the continued expansion of the U.S. clean energy market through SEIA's and SEPA's research, education, and advocacy efforts. Our work has real consequence, and the team behind it operates accordingly — with energy, intention, and a shared commitment to doing the work well.
