The Northeast faces distinct challenges: aging infrastructure, rising demand for renewable integration, grid modernization in densely populated areas, and resilience against extreme weather events like nor’easters and hurricanes. DTECH Northeast brings together experts to tackle these issues head-on, offering insights into cutting-edge technologies and strategies that ensure reliability, sustainability, and customer satisfaction.  

We invite industry experts, researchers, policymakers and innovators to submit their proposals and share their knowledge, experiences and insights at this important event. Together, we can advance sustainable energy solutions, foster dynamic collaboration and shape a resilient future for the intersection of digital infrastructure and the energy grid. 

We are seeking dynamic and engaging presentations, panel discussions and case studies that explore a wide range of topics important to the utility industry. All proposals should primarily appeal to each of our key stakeholder groups: utilities, EPCs, regulators, and consultants. Acceptance through the “call for content” is largely dependent on the relevancy of the topic and the inclusion of utility speakers.  

Topics include:

• Grid Modernization 
• Asset Management 
• Transportation Electrification 
• Cybersecurity 
• Energy Storage 
• Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)  
• Advanced Distribution Operations  
• Artificial Intelligence (AI)  
• Communication Networks 
• Customer Engagement 
• Data Analytics and AI 
• Distributed Energy Resources 
• Reliability and Resilience 
• Data Centers 
• Wildfire Mitigation and Vegetation Management 

Submission Guidelines:

• Presentation proposals should include a title, abstract, and a brief biography of the speaker(s).
• Panel discussion proposals should include a proposed topic, moderator, and potential panelists.
• Case study proposals should provide an overview of the project, challenges faced, and outcomes achieved.
• All submissions must include an utility speaker to be accepted.

 

Dates and Deadlines:

• Call for Abstracts will open April 7, 2025.
• Session submissions are due by May 5, 2025, by 11:59 PM EST.
• Late submissions will not be accepted, no exceptions.
