A longtime business executive based in Redding, CT, David Bohn has served as president of the Preferred Utilities Manufacturing Corporation for over two decades. He has been with the company since 1987. Alongside his day-to-day professional activities in and around Redding, CT, David Bohn maintains membership in several industry associations, including the Council of Industrial Boiler Owners (CIBO).

In its efforts to educate members and the greater community about cost-effective non-utility energy production, the CIBO oversees programs and activities aimed at research and education. The organization holds several events throughout the year, including the CIBO Annual Meeting, which was launched in 1978.
A members-only event, the CIBO Annual Meeting brings together industrial and institutional IPP boiler owners, equipment manufacturers, engineers, and other professionals to discuss policies and regulations and to explore technological and operational improvements in the industry. The event also gives attendees the opportunity to network with energy and environmental leaders as well as regulatory and legal experts.
The CIBO's most recent Annual Meeting took place October 18-20, 2017, in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. In addition to educational programming focused on the national industrial energy environment, corporate sustainability, and other topics, the three-day meeting featured social activities that included a reception, a golf tournament, and a tour of Jacksonville, Florida.
The CIBO is currently looking ahead to several upcoming meetings, including a May 2018 conference on boiler operations, maintenance, and performance. The organization will hold its 40th Annual Meeting October 24-26, 2018, in Tucson, Arizona.
