Power-gen International@20: A Look Vack at Issues And Events From 1988

摘要

Twenty years ago on page 6 of the January 1988 edition of Power Engineering magazine, a full-page ad introduced "POWER-GEN '88" to the world. The inaugural event, which grew to become POWER-GEN International, was held at the Orlando Convention Center from December 6-8. The event covered fossil and solid fuel power generation, including coal, oil, natural gas, municipal solid waste and other waste fuels. "Paper abstracts are invited," the ad read. That opened the floodgates, which, over the next 20 years, would see thousands of papers researched, written and presented at the world's largest and most prestigious exhibition and conference for the power generation industry.
