Some of our great attendee feedback:
Great event, attractive compilation of contributions covering steam turbines, generators, balance of plant equipment and future direction of power generation, interesting technical contents, experienced speakers.
This event was useful to delve deeper into the technical content. The networking opportunities were insightful, particularly the discussions with end users and industry peers around industry trends, challenges and future opportunities.
Great venue to meet and network with various colleagues from the power industry.
I was very impressed with the professionalism of the event and was a privilege to attend. The collaboration between companies and event sponsors was impressive. The discussions at the event meal were professional and humorous but it was strange to hear that my problems at my facility were not unique and I took away from these discussions some techniques that I will try to implement, so well worth the attendance.
One of the worlds high-calibre events coving steam turbine and future energy infrastructure.
The conference has grown into an extraordinary event - not to be missed by anyone involved in the power industry. It covered a diverse range of subjects, delivered by excellent presenters. A great opportunity to network and learn from the experts.
A good conference to network with fellow engineers working in the world of Steam Turbines and to keep appraised of the latest advances in Power Plant technologies.
As a Lead Rotating Equipment Engineer at a large power generation company, I regularly attend this STGUG to keep up to date with the industry, network with colleagues across the industry and to speak with vendors of turbine generator equipment.
