DTECH Reliability & Resiliency — Coming 2026!

Engineering Reliability. Designing Resilience. Advancing the Grid. 

Historically, reliability for a utility was a straightforward concept that was centered on keeping the lights on, with success measured by how long and how often customers experienced power outages. Today, grid resiliency is a key component of a far more complex definition of reliability.

The DTECH® Reliability & Resiliency Conference will help electric utilities and their partners to address these issues by exploring how to build a more secure, dependable, and adaptable grid. This two-day event brings together utility executives, engineers, regulators, policymakers, and technology innovators to explore the future of a secure, dependable, and adaptable grid. Through utility-led case studies, closed-door roundtables, and interactive workshops, the program addresses real-world challenges—from wildfire and hurricane preparedness to DER integration, storm restoration, and cyber defense.
