DTECH® Data Centers & AI — The Premier Event at the Intersection of Energy and Digital Infrastructure

Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most significant technological advancements in decades, and the data centers that power it are having a major impact on electric utilities. These data centers require immense amounts of electricity, forcing utilities to rethink traditional investment models to keep up with skyrocketing demand. This rapid growth is placing an unaccounted-for strain on existing power grids, raising critical questions about how developers and utilities should collaborate, how to define new rate designs, and more.

DTECH® Data Centers and AI lives at the intersection of energy and infrastructure to answer these questions. The event provides a forum for utility leaders to get actionable strategies for managing new power demands, mitigate project delays and deploy scalable, sustainable solutions. Join top executives and thought leaders as they dive into how AI is transforming utility operations, load management, and the very way we plan for the grid of tomorrow.
