IEEE PES T&D Show Blog: Coming Together

April 16, 2018

Gene Wolf gives his observations on the IEEE PES T&D Show

The floor is starting to come together. Forklifts are racing from one end of the IEEE PES T&D Expo to the other. It's a good idea to keep one eye out for traffic while walking about.

Along with lots of forklifts, there are trailers full of vegetation, carpets, and all the things that give attendees that welcome.

Tomorrow, this will look totally different. But today will be spent polishing the booth.
