The University of Wyoming Energy Resources Council (ERC) will meet at 8 a.m. Friday,
Aug. 14, at Laramie’s Hilton Garden Inn for the council’s regularly scheduled quarterly
meeting.
During the meeting, UW School of Energy Resources (SER) Acting Executive Director
Scott Quillinan will provide an overview of major SER activities. This will be followed
by SER division reports and a finance update.
This meeting marks a notable transition for the ERC. It will be the final council
meeting led by Quillinan, concluding his period of leadership in this interim role.
Additionally, the ERC will welcome UW President Shane Reeves, who will attend his
first official meeting as an ex-officio member of the ERC.
Interested members of the public wishing to listen in on the meeting may attend in
person or request access to the Zoom link by emailing Christine Reed at christine.reed@uwyo.edu.
The ERC was established by the Wyoming State Legislature in 2006. Made up of industry,
state government and academia representatives, the council provides direction to SER
priorities for research and outreach.
SER provides undergraduate education and graduate research opportunities; conducts
research on existing and emerging energy resources; and disseminates scientific, engineering
and economic information to support Wyoming’s near- and long-term energy future.
