About the Best Practices EXPO & Conference

The 2nd annual Best Practices EXPO & Conference is being held October 13-16, 2019 at the Nashville Music City Center, conveniently located in Nashville, TN. Attendees of the 3-day four-track conference will learn, from leading experts, ways in which to optimize compressed air dyers, filters, piping and condensate management. Other sessions will focus on optimizing blower/vacuum and chiller/cooling systems. The EXPO floor will feature more than 100 exhibitors displaying the technologies needed to optimize blower, vacuum, compressed air and chiller/cooling systems.

The event is Co-Sponsored by the Compressed Air & Gas Institute (CAGI) and  TVA EnergyRight® Solutions for Business + Industry. CAGI’s mission is to be the united voice of the compressed air industry, serving as the unbiased authority on technical, educational and promotional matters affecting the industry.  TVA EnergyRight® Solutions for Business + Industry provides assessments of energy use and incentives for qualifying businesses and industries that can reduce their electricity usage.
