SUMMARY:Register Now for the Power Resilience Forum Jan 21-23, 2026 – Houston
DESCRIPTION:This event reminder is sponsored by: Allstream Energy Partners, digital marketing experts in the energy sector\n\nINTRODUCING: POWER RESILIENCE FORUM 2026\nThe Power Resilience Forum (PRF) 2026 is the premier event on grid resiliency, bringing together leaders from across the power sector to address the new realities of planning and operating the grid in an era of extreme weather and wildfires. Utility executives, operators, technology providers, regulators, and investors meet here to share strategies and build the partnerships needed to strengthen the grid and define the next playbook for resilience.\nThe Ad Hoc Group works closely with innovators, utilities, and regulators on the adoption of resilience technologies, while Latitude Media provides in-depth coverage of the industry and has built an audience of power sector professionals that are actively engaged with its daily news and virtual and in-person events.\nThe leadership teams of both organizations have helped launch and run some of the most successful industry events of the last two decades.\nWHO SHOULD ATTEND\n\nUtility operators and decision makers\nState regulatory commissioners and staff\nFederal and state government leaders\nResilience technology companies\nInsurers\nFinance/investors\nRating agencies\nConsultants\nNonprofits\n\n\nWednesday, January 21\n\n12:00–4:00pm – Pre-Conference EPRI Workshop\nAs a part of the Power Resilience Forum, this Climate READi© half-day workshop will equip attendees with the tools and strategies needed to assess and manage physical climate risk to the power system and identify adaptation strategies. As extreme weather events increasingly challenge grid resilience, the Climate READi Framework — developed with input from over 40 power companies and 100 global stakeholders — offers a rigorous, standardized approach for evaluating risk and guiding investment decisions.\nWhile the Framework provides technical guidance for defensible assessments, enabling proactive resilience investments will require coordinated planning and stakeholder engagement. Through this workshop session, participants will gain practical insights to support forward-looking risk management and help shape a climate-resilient power system for the future.\nNote: The EPRI workshop requires separate registration.\n\n\n5:30–7:00pm – Opening Reception\n\nThursday, January 22\n\n7:30–8:30am – Breakfast\n\n\n8:30–9:00am – Welcome and Opening Remarks\n\nJulia Hamm – Partner, The Ad Hoc Group & PRF Host\nStephen Lacey – Executive Editor & Co-Founder, Latitude Media & PRF Host\nJason Ryan – EVP, Regulatory Services & Government Affairs, CenterPoint Energy & PRF Advisory Board Co-Chair\nMorgan Scott – VP, Global Outreach & Partnerships, EPRI & PRF Advisory Board Co-Chair\n\n\n\n9:00–9:30am – Opening Keynote: From Stability to Surprise\nTraditional weather patterns are shifting in ways that defy historical norms.
