Editor’s note: We have updated this list to add electric power industry events covering transmission and distribution, affordability, customer service, microgrids and more.
The pace of change in the U.S. power sector is speeding up.
Dramatic federal policy and funding reversals on fossil fuels and renewables are challenging the industry’s ability to adapt at a time of rising demand and rapid technological advancement. Tariffs, supply chain snarls and rising global temperatures complicate the sector’s response.
At the same time, distributed energy resources and ever-more-sophisticated software are making the grid more flexible, allowing for creative solutions to these and other system strains. Energy professionals, experts, government officials and other stakeholders will come together at conferences in 2026 to share knowledge, network and innovate.
