On December 8–9, 2026 in Houston, 1,500+ senior executives convene at Reuters Events: Energy LIVE at a defining moment in US energy history.
Electricity demand is accelerating, fuelled by AI, data centers, factory reshoring, and industrial electrification. At the same time, the grid, supply chains, and regulatory frameworks required to support expansion are struggling to keep pace.
Transmission capacity is constrained. Gas turbines are backordered to 2031. LNG megaprojects are reshaping global energy security. Advanced nuclear and geothermal are moving from paper to construction. As the energy mix diversifies, complexity is increasing at every level of the system.
Energy LIVE is where the leaders solving these challenges, project owners, financiers, grid operators, EPCs, policymakers, and technology innovators, align strategy with execution, accelerate decision‑making, and move complex energy projects from vision to delivery.
Senior Reuters journalists will take to the main stage to lead incisive interviews, challenge industry leaders with data-driven questions, and provide the independent, agenda-setting perspective that defines Reuters.
Our editors will tackle the tough questions that matter, delivering newsworthy journalism in real time—all moderated under the Reuters Trust Principles that ensure the editorial independence and integrity you expect from us.
Trace where capital is moving, and why. This program examines shifting development timelines, new financing structures, and the project attributes investors are prioritizing. It’s a roadmap for unlocking funding, accelerating commercialization, and fueling the next generation of American energy innovation.
Bringing together a select group of industry experts, the Steering Committee serves as the strategic advisory body for Energy LIVE. Working closely with our production team, the committee helps define the event’s focus areas, identify the most pressing industry challenges, and guide the development of sessions that deliver meaningful, actionable insights.
