About this Event
Join Young Professionals of Energy NYC (YPE NYC) on a tour of Con Edison's East River Generating plant. The tour begins with a brief overview of the steam system, including the history of the district steam network, how steam is used across NYC, and highlights of the decarbonization plan. Next, we'll tour the plant itself to see the boilers and learn how steam is generated. We'll then visit the control room, where operators keep the system running 24/7/365.
(Please note: Ticket proceeds go directly to YPE NYC to fund future events and are entirely separate from Con Edison.)
