EGB Conference sessions will cover timely topics, such as Smart Grid, commissioning, and building energy-rating systems. Additionally, your EGB registration provides access to all HVACR WEEK 2010 functions, including:

• Any conference session of your choice, including those for HVAC Comfortech and the Commercial HVACR Symposium.
