PERMIAN POWER

CONNECTION CONFERENCE

About This Event

VENUE: 
Horseshoe Arena, 2514 Arena Trl, Midland, TX 79701

Permian Basin power demand is forecast to quadruple by the 2030s, driven by oilfield electrification, tech demand from AI data centers and crypto, and urban growth. Already power-limited today, the regional economy faces electricity grid constraints, long utility connection lead-times and challenges supplying emerging high-volume, uninterrupted, and remote load. Fortunately, the Permian has abundant natural resources for generation (natural gas, solar, wind, geothermal, hydrogen), plentiful land, and an in-place energy industry / workforce. 

The Permian Basin region is primed for a once-in-a-generation power infrastructure boom to debottleneck rapidly expanding industrial baseload demand.

This September 29-30 at the Horseshoe Arena in Midland, TX, a first-of-its-kind conference organized by energy veterans with West Texas roots will gather power-focused executives from oil and gas, AI data centers, tech, cryptocurrency, renewables, battery storage, micro-grids, nuclear, electric power as a service, mobile power gen, CNG, capital markets, utilities, government, equipment, engineering, and construction. The multi-disciplinary attendees of this event share common interests in building the robust Permian power stack of the future. This conference is the right place at the right time to network with the right people to implement the right solutions. Come to learn, share, transact, and forge partnerships with your Permian power peers!

The conference experience will be social and open with two high impact main stage panels bookending each day, leaving plenty of networking time in the exhibit hall where targeted information sessions will be presented on sector-specific stages and sponsor breakout areas. This forum is designed to enhance opportunities for all attendees by a) fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration, and b) empowering specialty deep dives.
