Reserve Your Room Now for the PES 2009 General Meeting!

The IEEE Power & Energy Society would like to request your assistance and support of the 2009 General Meeting by booking your accommodations exclusively at the conference hotels outlined below. While it is often possible to secure less expensive room rates at other hotels outside the contracted room block, in reality this impacts our ability to maintain reasonable registration fees and other associated costs for the conference.  Equally important is our ability to determine actual needs for future planning. If we don’t fill our block, IEEE PES is exposed to paying penalty attrition fees, which may impact membership and conference costs in the future.

Your loyalty and co-operation are greatly appreciated.

It is suggested that you verify any specifics that are important to you by checking directly with the hotel or visiting their web sites.
