About the session

What’s covered

How do corporations manage existing electricity needs and secure new sources of power in a grid constrained market where prices are rising? What are they doing to manage the trade offs between energy needed now and sustainable energy for the future? 

The AI boom is disrupting corporate energy budgets and carbon models simultaneously. Designed for those working on energy management and procurement strategies and practicalities, this tutorial includes research, case studies and a practitioner panel then closes with round table conversations facilitated by the session speakers.

Attendees can sit at tables that match their interest so that the networking and round table conversations happen with peers. You’ll leave with practical solutions available today so that you can get ahead of the issue — without waiting on the system to catch up.
