2016 Appalachian Energy Summit

The 2016 Appalachian Energy Summit (AES) is the 5th annual energy leadership gathering of UNC’s 17 campuses and many colleges and universities from across the country. This event convenes academia, industry, and students in a transformational effort that delivers meaningful ecological, financial and social benefit. 

The Summit’s 2016 theme, “Knowledge. Collaboration. Action.” speaks to the knowledge we possess as a collective, the collaborative opportunities that exist between higher education and our valued business partners, and the sense of urgency and action we all must embrace in this important work and its meaningful goals.
