Encana Energy Expo in Rifle to feature Natural Gas Technology and Alternative Energies

Sponsored by EnCana and free to attendees, the 7th annual Energy Expo gives an up-close look at the technology and skilled workforce responsible for developing clean domestic energy in Western Colorado. It takes place Wednesday, May 6th, from noon to 5 p.m. at the Garfield County Fairgrounds.

The Energy Expo is a great opportunity for people who live and work in the area to talk one-on-one with representatives from EnCana and numerous other local operators, contractor companies, work force-training groups, government and regulatory agencies and alternative energy companies.

“There have been a lot of changes in the last year, in the way Colorado’s energy resources are developed,” said Kathy Friesen, Education Advisor and Expo Director. “The Expo continues to be an educational forum for the community to gain first-hand knowledge about the natural gas industry, environmental initiatives and alternative energy. We encourage everyone to come out and ask questions.”

Emerging technology exhibits are a critical component of the Expo and this year is no different with EnCana debuting one of their natural gas fleet vehicles, the Honda Civic GX. EnCana recently launched its Drive NGV employee program and hasintroduced a small fleet of business and commuter-use natural gas powered vehicles to its employees to help increase awareness for the virtues of natural gas and its versatility as the cleanest commercially available fuel choice.

With more than 80 exhibits, the 7th Annual Energy Expo is on track to be the most informative expo yet. For more information, please contact EnCana at (970) 2....
