You’re already moving bold energy projects forward. At RE+ 2026, we’re here to help you move faster, with greater confidence, and with the right strategy in place from the start.
Our leadership, business development, and software experts will all be on site — ready to meet, collaborate, and map out next steps to bring your projects to life. Whether you’re focused on navigating changes in America's energy landscape, powering data center growth, navigating interconnection queues, or advancing renewable and storage integration, we’re here to be your partner in success.
This session explores how utilities can create value on the path to DERMS by advancing grid orchestration, flexibility, and customer participation. Through practical use cases, utility perspectives, and broader industry trends, the discussion will highlight opportunities to unlock value at different stages of grid modernization and across varying market constructs.


RE+ 2026 aims to create a platform and forum for modern energy industry leaders to engage and discuss strategies for meeting the power demands of the future. As the largest and most comprehensive event in North America for the clean energy industry, RE+ incorporates business opportunities and education content across energy sectors, including solar, energy storage, hydrogen, microgrids, EV charging and infrastructure, and wind energy.
Participate in EPE's In-Depth Workshop
AI-driven data centers are the fastest-growing load type in the history of the U.S. power grid. But the gap between a developer's power request and a viable interconnection path has never been wider — or more consequential.
This workshop brings together independent engineers, grid planners, and research institutions to move beyond the hype and into the hard questions: How do today's transmission constraints actually shape siting decisions? How are queue reform efforts changing the math? And what does frontier research tell us about where the grid needs to go to keep up?
Drawing on real-world project experience across all major U.S. ISOs and RTOs and informed by EPE's research collaborations with the Power and AI Initiative (PAI) at Harvard SEAS and the National Lab of the Rockies, this session gives developers, utilities, and planners practical frameworks for bridging the gap between data center demand and grid capacity.



Members of EPE's software team are available throughout the show supplying demonstrations of our InSights software. From evaluating site feasibility to mitigating project risks, InSights delivers unparalleled clarity through tailored dashboards, geo-corrected maps, and advanced analytics. Whether you’re planning large-scale renewable projects, siting high-demand load centers, or financing infrastructure, InSights equips you with the tools to optimize outcomes and de-risk investments.
