Powering America’s Future

Coming March, 2025

Technology and Investment Opportunities

An ongoing series addressing one of America’s—and the world’s—major challenges: ensuring a steady and reliable supply of electricity to power our future.

The situation has become dire, with blackouts and brownouts occurring daily, sometimes affecting millions of people and paralyzing entire cities. And things could get worse. The rise of AI, crypto mining, electric vehicles, and the transition away from fossil fuels to electricity to meet Net Zero goals, as well as cold snaps and heat waves, are putting unprecedented strain on the grid.

NextGrid is where the solutions are found.

Based in Washington, D.C., we gather energy leaders and visionaries from the private and public sectors to advance new technologies and ideas to build the next grid. Hundreds of billions of investments are expected in North America alone. We’ll look at where those investments are — and should be — going.

NextGrid will offer a membership system to provide exclusive access to insights, discussions, and updates. In addition ot an ongoing series of digital and in-person events, members will receive a newsletter that keeps them informed about the latest developments, upcoming events, and key takeaways from our conferences. Stay connected and be at the forefront of the energy revolution.
