GridTECH Connect Forum expands to welcome utility-scale interconnection projects

You asked. We listened. Now we’re opening up the tent.

Effective immediately, the interconnection conference GridTECH Connect Forum has expanded its purview to include projects of all sizes, up to utility-scale. Previously, GridTECH Connect Forum had focused primarily on the challenges facing DG interconnection.

“Interconnection stands as one of the biggest challenges facing the energy transition, and it binds together utilities, developers, and regulators unlike any other issue,” said John Engel, the editor-in-chief of T&D and renewables for Clarion Events. “Our climate goals depend on these groups engaging positively and proactively, and we’re excited to see the impact that GridTECH Connect Forum’s content expansion has on advancing the interconnection conversation.”

GridTECH Connect Forum is the interconnection event, offering electric utilities, grid operators, project developers, policymakers, and advocates a unique opportunity to join forces and improve the critical issue of interconnection. In a focused and intimate setting, that diverse range of stakeholders comes together to collaborate, share best practices, and devise innovative solutions that will help us reach our climate goals. 

GridTECH Connect Forum just made a successful stop in Orlando, Florida following previous events in San Diego, California, and Newport, Rhode Island.


Join us at GridTECH Connect California, taking place June 24-26, 2024, in Newport Beach, CA! With some of the most ambitious sustainability and clean energy goals in the country, California is at the cutting edge of the energy transition while confronting its most cumbersome roadblocks. From electric vehicles to battery storage, microgrids, community solar, and everything in between, attendees will collaborate to advance interconnection procedures and policies in California.


The next conference will be June 24-26 in Newport Beach, California. GridTECH Connect Forum will return to the Northeast October 28-30 for another Northeast-focused event in Newport, Rhode Island. (We just love ports! Especially ‘new’ ones!)

Each event is a regionally-focused, immersive experience. Conference programming is tailored by senior energy industry leaders and is designed to supply attendees with actionable takeaways. Peer-to-peer roundtable discussions spark strategic conversations that go beyond vendor booths and boilerplate pitches, while unparalleled networking opportunities put you front and center with the decision-makers advancing interconnection. Programming includes DER and utility-scale interconnection, community solar, battery energy storage, virtual power plants, microgrids, integrated resource planning, policy and regulation, and more.
