2nd Annual Permian Power Conference: Time to Power

June 8–9, 2026
Horseshoe Arena | Midland, Texas

800+ attendees. 80+ industry-leading speakers. 90+ sponsors. One mission: Time to Power.

From ERCOT strategy and behind-the-meter power solutions to microgrids, gas-to-power projects, small modular reactors (SMRs), and AI-driven energy demand, the Permian Power Conference brings together the people building the future of power infrastructure in West Texas.

Sponsorship and exhibiting opportunities are limited and expected to sell out quickly. Secure your place today and join the industry’s most influential gathering at the intersection of energy, technology, and infrastructure.

Where Energy Meets the AI Revolution

Following a highly successful inaugural event, the Permian Power Conference returns in 2026 with even greater momentum. More than 800 attendees, 90+ sponsors, and 80+ top-tier speakers are expected to convene in Midland to address one of the most important challenges facing the region—and the nation: powering unprecedented growth.

The Permian Basin is no longer defined solely by oil and gas production. It is rapidly emerging as a strategic hub for America’s AI infrastructure expansion. In the last six months alone, seven gigawatt-scale AI hyperscale data center campuses have been announced across West Texas and Southeast New Mexico, leveraging abundant energy resources, available land, and a favorable regulatory environment.

But understanding how to develop and power these next-generation facilities requires more than attending national technology conferences. The critical decisions surrounding site selection, behind-the-meter generation, grid interconnection, fuel sourcing, fiber connectivity, permitting, and power contracting are being made in the Permian itself.

The Industry’s Most Important Conversations—In One Place

The energy producers, landowners, power developers, equipment manufacturers, engineering firms, fiber providers, permitting specialists, and ERCOT market experts who shape successful projects will all be in Midland on June 8–9.

The Permian Power Conference provides a unique platform where data center developers, operators, investors, and infrastructure providers can engage directly with the supply chain responsible for powering the next generation of AI campuses and industrial facilities.

Attendees will explore the full spectrum of energy and infrastructure solutions, including:

  • Behind-the-meter power generation strategies
