Baritone Sidney Outlaw has been called an "opera powerhouse" by the San Francisco Chronicle, an apt description for a singer who has brought his rich and versatile voice to title roles in Mozart's Don Giovanni and Anthony Davis's X, The Life and Times of Malcolm X, as well as the comical Dandini in Rossini's La Cenerentola.
Howard Watkins is a collaborative pianist who made his Carnegie Hall debut in 2002. An assistant conductor at the Metropolitan Opera, Watkins teaches at the Tanglewood Music Center, and has performed with tenor Rolando Villazón, violinist Sarah Chang, baritone Mariusz Kwiecień, and other stars.

cordially invite you to a panel discussion:
FOCUS: Smart Grid 2014
Wednesday, November 5, 2014, from 6:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Prof. Dr. Ingo Stadler
Professor of Renewable Energies & Energy Economics
Margarett Jolly
Director of Research & Development

moderated by
Jeremiah Miller
Senior Analyst
Smarter Grid Solutions
German House, 871 United Nations Plaza (First Ave. at 49th Street), New York, NY
After sequential hurricanes in 2011 and 2012, New Yorkers experienced firsthand how an electricity disruption can have a domino effect – a series of failures that affect transportation, communications, and security. A smarter grid adds resiliency to electrical power systems and makes them better prepared to address emergencies, such as severe storms, earthquakes, heat waves, and terrorist attacks. In addition, the Smart Grid is one way to address an aging energy infrastructure that needs to be upgraded or replaced. It has the capacity to increase energy efficiency by enhancing awareness among consumers about the connection between electricity use and the environment. Thus, the Smart Grid not only provides a unique opportunity to propel the energy industry into a new era of reliability, availability, and efficiency, but it can also have a positive impact on the economy and the environment. On November 5, our panel of experts will convene to review the technology’s past successes and discuss its future challenges.
