AWEA Wind Project O&M and Safety Conference 2017
Driving Operational Excellence through Successful Partnership

AWEA is now accepting abstracts for the AWEA Wind Project O&M and Safety Conference 2017 until 11:59 PM ET, Monday, August 22nd, 2016. The primary authors of the abstracts will be notified via email whether or not their abstracts were selected by November 1st , 2016.

What are the keys to driving operational excellence? Health & safety, O&M, workforce training & development, and quality assurance. The AWEA Operations & Maintenance and Safety Conference is where the industry comes together to recognize unique challenges and identify solutions in these areas. And as the wind energy industry continues to expand, so does the need for an evolving approach to operating the nation’s growing number of wind projects. Fortunately, there is no shortage of experience to draw from in this arena. Individuals from across industry sectors and across functional disciplines will join in San Diego in February to set a vision and plan for continued and expanded operational excellence in the wind industry.

Make sure you are a part of the largest North American gathering of wind energy operational professionals and technicians, as we combine the essential elements of O&M, health & safety, workforce development, and quality assurance to develop a successful partnership for today and beyond.

Please follow the steps below:
  1. Read the abstract submission policy below.
  2. Review the topic list that your abstract should address.
  3. Review the list of information you’ll need.
  4. Submit an abstract by logging in to the Abstract Scorecard below.

The primary authors of the abstracts will be notified via email whether or not their abstracts were selected by November 1, 2016. Please do not contact AWEA before this date, as it will only delay the process. If you are accepted, you must register for the conference within 10 business days of notification at the discounted presenter registration rate.

Abstract Submission Policy:
  1. All obvious commercial sales pitches will not be accepted for a presentation.
  2. Abstracts must be well-organized and clearly describe their relevance to the industry and how the information presented could be applied or used in practice. Applicants are encouraged to use case studies, offer solutions, and include specifics.
  3. Abstracts should contain new perspective or data and not have been presented previously.
  4. More than one abstract may be submitted. However, only one presenting author per abstract is permitted to present. A presenter may be allowed to have more than one poster presented if the abstracts have been accepted.
  5. Selected presenters will be asked to present their abstracts along with other accepted abstracts in a designated time slot, with single PPT presentations ranging from 5 -15 minutes. In some cases, abstract authors may be asked to speak as a panelist. Session topics are pre-determined by the program committee.
  6. Panel or session proposals are not accepted for this conference.
  7. AWEA will review all the submitted abstracts, and select the most interesting and appropriate abstracts for this year’s program. We’ll be also inviting others to present on topics that we did not receive suitable abstracts on.
  8. Only one presenter per abstract will be allowed to participate in the presentation and acknowledged in the Final Program. Co-authors can be listed in the speaker's PowerPoint and the final paper.
  9. Note that after August 15th, late abstracts may be submitted with a $25 administrative fee. AWEA reserves the right to reject any abstracts at any time. Due to the large number of abstracts received for this conference, AWEA is unable to provide feedback on abstracts not accepted for the program.
