Southeast Renewable Energy

An unprecedented expansion of energy demand is in full swing across the Southeast, driven by new data centers and manufacturing facilities. Southeastern states and major utilities are projecting the need to dramatically — and quickly — ramp up their current power generation capacities; in some cases, to double it. And much of this demand is coming from customers demanding clean energy.

However, while this is a huge opportunity for the renewable energy industry, fully embracing that opportunity requires understanding a series of critical issues. How will renewables be affected by plans to rapidly add gas-fired capacity? How can increasing local opposition to siting and permitting of renewable projects be overcome? What strategies can developers adopt to optimize their projects’ status in the growing interconnection queues across the Southeast? How can projects be structured to handle increased interest rates and other macroeconomic trends making financing more difficult? What are the potential impacts of the upcoming election on renewable energy and how are they affecting developer strategies?

Infocast’s 9th annual Southeast Renewable Energy event, is the ONLY conference covering this burgeoning market that gets “everyone in the room” from across the entire region. Featuring key state policymakers, critical decision-makers, leading utility executives, financiers and renewable energy players, the event does a critical survey of the most dynamic states in the region — including North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee, and MISO South — to provide definitive updates on the issues you will need to understand to seize the very best opportunities.
