AI and the explosive growth of data centers have created an unprecedented scale of power demand. According to the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), peak electricity demand is projected to grow by 17% over the next decade, reaching its highest level in decades. Soaring power demand, coupled with inadequate grid infrastructure, has led to project delays and rising costs. Aging infrastructure faces increasing risks of outages caused by equipment failures, extreme weather events, and cyber threats. Reliable distributed power is becoming an essential complement to the centralized grid. A growing number of business leaders are taking control of their own energy future, making on-site power generation, energy storage and microgrids as solutions to support their business priorities.

The summit will bring together data center owners and operators, utilities and independent power producers, technology and equipment suppliers, EPC firms, investors, and policymakers to address challenges and solutions for the power resilience in data centers. Join us in Houston to speed to resilient power for data centers in America.
