DTECH Midwest — The Midwest’s Must-Attend Event for the Region's Energy Future

Midwest utilities face challenges from extreme weather, aging infrastructure, and the need to integrate renewable energy while maintaining grid reliability. Regulatory pressures to decarbonize add complexity, as utilities transition from fossil fuels to cleaner alternatives. They also grapple with supply chain issues, labor shortages, and cybersecurity risks. Balancing modernization efforts with affordable pricing, especially in both urban and rural areas, remains a significant challenge for the region. DTECH® Midwest provides a unique opportunity to dive into the specific challenges of the region, as well as tailored content for municipal and cooperative utilities.
