The sixth annual CxEnergy Conference & Expo will begin with a look into the future. The advent of 5G-enabled technologies will vastly disrupt many industries and CxEnergy has invited Steve Schmerber, director of field application engineering, CommScope, to speak at the Opening Plenary session about how it may impact the professions of energy management and commissioning. CxEnergy 2019 is being held April 15-18 in Orlando, Florida.
