Scholarship Program
Join the Next Generation of Efficiency Leaders
We offer a limited number of scholarships for students and trainees to attend the Hot Water & Hot Air Forums. The scholarship covers full conference registration fees.
If you’re passionate about efficiency, electrification, and affordability, this is your chance to:

Scholars attend technical sessions, join networking events, and become part of a professional community working to lower energy costs and cut emissions.
