The Digital Grid: Technology and the Future of Distributed Energy Resources

Please join us for a thoughtful discussion at the intersection of the energy and technology industries, where emerging innovations at the distribution voltage level are transforming how power is generated, managed, and delivered.

This session will explore how technological advancements on the electric distribution system are propelling the shift toward a more resilient grid and introducing novel uses for existing facilities. Our speakers will examine the technologies enabling this transformation—including virtual power plants, artificial intelligence integration, and advanced grid management—and will address the regulatory, financing, and cybersecurity considerations shaping this rapidly evolving landscape.

Topics will include:

• Technologies driving grid decentralization
• Unlocking enhanced load flexibility for data centers and other large customers
• The convergence of energy infrastructure with data, AI, and digital platforms
• Opportunities and challenges for developers, investors, and utilities
• Policy, regulatory, and market trends influencing distributed energy resource growth
