Hi
Me and my Power Engineering student colleagues are planning an international student visit to L.A. in spring 2014. Our aim is to visit some electricity/energy companies, research institutes and academies to make new contacts and to see how electricity-related things are done in U.S. (systems & regulations seem to be somehow different in US and Europe ), and to enjoy sights&activities of L.A., of course. Our interests are energy production / transmission/distribution, renewable energy and building automation systems.
I would like to hear your suggestions for places to visit. Caltech & UCLA are quite obvious, but how about companies? Maybe a grid/power plant operator, renewable energy operator/manufacturer, wind/solar farm... preferably within easy reach from L.A. I have already emailed some companies to their addresses, but with zero results. So if you know some persons to contact, I would be really .
Thanks!
