Opening Remarks: Getting More Out of the Grid

November 03, 2026
Grand Ballroom A
Keynote

Salah Khuhro, Senior Vice President at OATI and presenting sponsor of DTECH Northeast, sets the stage with a look at one of the biggest challenges facing New England’s grid: meeting rising and shifting winter peak demand as heating electrifies. With traditional infrastructure alone unlikely to meet growing demand, utilities are looking for new ways to unlock capacity and flexibility. Salah will set the stage for the conversations ahead, exploring how utilities can make greater use of the grid and the DERs already in place.
