Driven by a surge of new data centers and manufacturing facilities, the Southeast must add tens of gigawatts of new generation. State commissions and utilities must dramatically ramp up procurements, sometimes doubling current system capacities, to meet this demand. Customers, meanwhile, are increasingly demanding clean, firm, and reliable energy, creating an enormous growth opportunity for the renewable energy sector.
Yet despite the tremendous opportunity, the path forward is complex and uncertain. The OBBBA and other federal political headwinds, the impacts of tariffs, and prolonged equipment lead times are introducing major uncertainties into project construction costs, power pricing, and schedules. Traditional processes for procuring power and negotiating PPAs and offtake agreements are being fundamentally reshaped. The energy industry must navigate challenges around supply chain risks, infrastructure investment priorities, renewable finance, and the ever-changing state regulatory landscape to successfully deliver the projects required to power the Southeast’s explosive growth.
Infocast’s 10th annual Southeast Renewable Energy is the only conference that brings together the full spectrum of decision-makers—state policymakers, industrial customers, utility executives, financiers, and renewable developers—to tackle these challenges head-on. This event provides definitive updates on project opportunities and execution across key Southeastern states including North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Mississippi.
Join 500 of the region’s top renewable energy executives to learn and collaborate on critical topics such as:
-
How unprecedented increases in demand are being translated into procurements and other investment opportunities
-
How state legislative and regulatory priorities are affecting procurements and PPA negotiations
-
How utilities across the region are planning to meet near-term service obligations, decarbonization commitments, and reliability concerns
-
Financing and M&A trends in the post-OBBBA environment
-
What data center and large industrial customers want in power supplies and tariff arrangements
-
Impact of regional transmission planning changes on reducing pressures on interconnection queues and power delivery
-
Developing strategies for incorporating tariffs, trade risks, and supply chain disruptions into PPAs and offtake agreements
-
How nuclear, gas-fired, and other technologies could alter the renewable energy market in the Southeast
-
Potential new policies and contracting methods to fully leverage storage solutions
Don't miss this chance to network with key decision-makers, gain strategic insights, and position yourself for success in what is quickly becoming one of the nation’s most dynamic energy markets.
