Khalil Shalabi is a foremost authority on energy. He’s held senior positions at ConEdison, Indian Point and The New York Power Authority among others. Khalil lead a discussion on a variety of energy topics including dependence on foreign oil, natural gas, nuclear power, wind power and other alternative energy sources. His presentation included numerous graphs and charts showing the interrelationships between these energy sources and their utilization over time. Khalil explained how supply and demand cause the fluxuations in gasoline prices we’ve been experiencing lately. And he helped us to understand some of the info contained in our utility bills. It was a lively discussion especially when politics entered into the consideration.

Barn Night Details
Barn Nights take place monthly, always on a Friday. The barn is located behind the house at 41 Deerfield. The doors open at 8pm, so feel free to come by, grab a beer and a slice of pizza, and socialize. The presentations start at 9pm and go for about an hour. Afterwards you can hang out and jam with or listen to the Barn Band. For the die hards there’s usually a “wrap up” at around midnight where we share our thoughts on the presentation and get into deep, controversial discussions. There’s a contribution box for you to drop in a minimum of $20 to help offset the cost of the event.

Khalil’s topic was a subject that was very informative and educational in the aspects of power transmission, generation and pricing for New York State.
I will like if he would consider to complete his speech on another Barn night since he wasn’t able to complete his speech in it’s entirety.
