The need to rapidly buildup system capacity is more intense than ever, along with attracting massive investment to deliver this avalanche of new generation, storage, transmission and distribution capacity. Simultaneously, the many market and rule reforms mandated by 2023 legislation (including the $5B Texas Energy Fund), aimed at increasing generation capacity and operational reliability, are being rolled out. What will the ERCOT power market of the future look like? Where will opportunities, challenges and risks lie? Anyone engaged with the ERCOT power market would have plenty of questions in such an “interesting” time. Fortunately, Infocast has the answers. At our ERCOT Market Summit 2025 we have put together a truly remarkable discussion by Texas policy makers, regulators, utility executives, renewable and dispatchable generation developers, financiers and other experts of what the ERCOT of 2025 and beyond will look like and act like. They will highlight opportunities, challenges and strategies being utilized by leading players. Infocast's ERCOT Market Summit 2025 will provide an unparalleled deep dive into resource adequacy; grid upgrades; power prices; project siting, interconnection and bankability; and how to best meet the shifting needs of commercial, industrial, and retail customers. This unparalleled group of experts and insiders will: * Share the latest information on policy developments in the 89th Legislative Session, their potential impacts on the ERCOT market, and how market participants are responding * Assess how the new regulatory and market rule changes being implemented now will impact ERCOT in 2025 and beyond * Hear how well the Texas Energy Fund is working to drive investment in dispatchable assets * Explore the opportunities and challenges of reliably supplying power to new AI data centers and large flexible loads * Examine how interconnection and planning processes are changing to deal with the sudden new reality of supplying over 60 GW of additional load * Gain the perspectives of financiers on how policy and regulatory risks are affecting their decision-making regarding financing dispatchable generation, wind, solar, and storage projects in ERCOT * Explore the huge opportunities and dangers of developing storage in ERCOT * Evaluate how proposed solutions to increase capacity and improve reliability could affect energy costs and asset profitability Last year Infocast's ERCOT Market Summit reached new heights of attendance and audience satisfaction. Attend the ERCOT Market Summit along with 800 of your peers and take advantage of your best opportunity to connect with key players and hear their plans for the upcoming year, while obtaining critical insights into the business environment of the next five years.
