This month, Sustainable Water attended the 2017 Second Nature Presidential Climate Leadership Summit and IDEA Campus Energy conference; two events filled with insightful presentations, industry professional collaboration, and engaging workshops.

Celebrating its 10th year, the Second Nature summit brought together over 300 professionals in the higher education industry ranging from campus sustainability teams to presidents, faculty, and staff to discuss campus sustainability initiatives. Sustainable Water’s Director of Sales, Bob Salvatelli, gave an engaging presentation during the summit regarding water management needs. The 30-minute session illustrated the multiple benefits of campus-scale water reclamation and reuse, utilizing the WaterHub as proof of concept.

Just last week, Bob collaborated with over 100 university facility managers and engineers at the IDEA Campus Energy conference. The event brought together like-minded utility professionals to exchange the latest best practices and lessons learned related to the planning and operating of efficient, reliable campus utilities.

If you are interested in hearing us speak or see us at future conferences, Sustainable Water has a number of upcoming events:

Title: Aligning Sustainability Leaders to Produce Water Management Best Practices
Date: Monday, March 27, 2017
Time: 4:20 PM in Room 1105
Presenters:

  • Bob Salvatelli, Director of Sales at Sustainable Water
  • Ashley Pennington, Program Manager for the Johns Hopkins University Office of Sustainability

Abstract: Drought, aging water infrastructure and environmental constraints force ever-growing Universities to address water management concerns and strive to build sustainable communities. Johns Hopkins University sits at the forefront of sustainable water management through its integration of campus-scale water reclamation into its master plan.

This presentation outlines the process Johns Hopkins followed to combine University sustainability efforts with community leaders, who provide innovative sustainability solutions, to transform water management practices into a nationally-replicable model. By collaborating with Sustainable Water, the proposed water reclamation system will improve the University’s water resiliency and footprint, and provide a platform for student and community engagement.
