Theme: Meeting the Energy Needs of a Dynamic World

As the Power and Energy industry continues to evolve, new opportunities and difficulties manifest each year. As the drive and desire for carbon-free sources of energy continue to grow to tackle the climate crisis, our industry will need to adapt and advance to meet new challenges that arise. Cyber attacks and natural disasters such as wildfires, hurricanes, and ice storms have revealed areas in need of fortification and innovative technologies, policies, and business models. 

The plenary session panel will showcase experienced leaders in power delivery, research, and regulation. Each of these experts will be able to discuss their unique perspectives on their initiatives and how the industry can innovate and adapt to move toward a reliable, sustainable future.
