The Electric Utility Fleet Managers Conference (EUFMC) will hold its 55^th annual gathering June 15-18, 2008, at the Williamsburg Lodge in Williamsburg, Virginia, U.S. During EUFMC 2008, fleet managers, suppliers and experts about electric-utility fleet issues will discuss in detail the latest environmental concerns and their impact on fleet operations, diesel emissions, regulations impacting utilities, hybrid vehicle developments, and other new technologies such as telematics and data capture systems that can enhance vehicle and maintenance efficiency. The conference will also feature sessions on fleet management practices such as life-cycle costs and modeling and will hold its annual Fleet Manager Idea Exchange, an informative group discussion about best practices for common vehicle, maintenance and management issues.

New for EUFMC 2008 is an expanded outdoor equipment demonstration and display designed to meet the industry's need for larger equipment and growing interest in the conference by suppliers of vehicles and equipment for the electric-utility industry. An annual highlight of the conference, the showcase has been the site of more than 60 exhibits where fleet managers can meet with over 200 representatives from more than 70 manufacturers and service providers to discuss technology developments.
