What's on for Utilities

CHARGED. The Grid Is Changing. So Is Everything That Powers It. Unleashed brings together utility leaders to explore The Era of Limitless Industry through sessions on Industrial AI, asset lifecycle management, and grid modernization.

What the Energy & Utilities Industry Needs Next and How IFS Is Answering.​

From AI-driven capital prioritization and autonomous execution agents in the market today, to fully autonomous asset lifecycle operations and self-adjusting investment portfolios.

The Real Cost of the Aging Grid & The Decision Gap

This session exposes the hidden decision gap between capital planning, asset performance, and field execution and what the data says it is really costing you.

From Vision to Execution: How Utilities Turn Integrated ALM into Real Operational Impact

Hear from operators adopting Industrial AI: where value emerged fastest, what challenges they faced, and how leadership evolved as programs scaled.

Scaling with Industrial AI: Different Starting Points, One Blueprint

Utilities are adopting AI-driven ALM from very different starting points; yet the most successful converge on the same outcome.

Behind Closed Doors: How Utility Leaders Are Navigating the Hard Decisions on AI and Operations

A peer-led executive roundtable exploring the real barriers to scaling AI-enabled ALM: governance, trust, data readiness, and workforce adoption.

One Scenario. Full Cycle. This Is Industrial AI in Utilities.

One utility scenario played out in full — capital prioritized, work sequenced, a disruption hits, decisions adapt.

04.

Why Unleashed. Why now.

The resilient utilities pulling ahead aren’t waiting for the transition to stabilize. They’re building the connected operating model to lead it. This is where the grid gets charged.

Insight Charged With Infrastructure Intelligence

Understand what benchmark data reveals about how leading utilities align capital, assets, and execution to deliver resilience at scale, without compounding cost, delivery risk, or regulatory exposure.

AI in Action Across the Grid

Live demonstrations covering asset lifecycle management, field workforce optimization, work order management, and how utilities turn fragmented planning systems into coordinated operations.

Keynotes That Shape What's Next

Hear from utility leaders redefining infrastructure performance as grid modernization, energy transition pressure, and aging assets under rising regulatory expectations converge.

AI Startup Hall

Discover Industrial AI companies solving utility challenges, from predictive grid maintenance to intelligent field workforce scheduling and capital project delivery.

Utilities Industry Breakouts

Build your agenda around the infrastructure priorities shaping your investment cycle. Sessions cover asset lifecycle, work order performance, capital delivery, regulatory compliance and grid reliability at scale.

Hands-On Learning and Training

Expert-led workshops and live demos built around IFS capabilities for utilities. Leave with practical tools, a clearer implementation path and the confidence to lead your investment cycle rather than react to it. Training registration is open.

Carol Johnston, VP – Energy, Utilities & Resources

Insight Charged with Infrastructure Intelligence

The utilities leading this investment cycle aren’t managing risk. They’re building the performance model for the next decade. Unleashed is where utility leaders come to build it.

What you'll leave with

Benchmark insight on how leading utilities are managing the grid transformation

Independent data and real utility examples showing how the best performers align capital allocation, asset health, and field execution. The kind of evidence that changes what your next investment decision looks like.

A sequenced path for scaling Industrial AI from grid modernization to autonomous utility operations

See how utilities are moving from connected systems to coordinated, AI-driven operations. Walk away with a practical roadmap for grid reliability, workforce scheduling, and investment cycle management on one unified platform.

Industrial AI running across a live utility scenario

Watch capital get prioritized, work get sequenced, a disruption land, and decisions adapt in real time. No slides, no theory. Just the system running across the full asset lifecycle.

A peer network built on shared operational reality

Utility leaders, asset managers, and grid operations executives navigating the same investment cycle pressures. The relationships built at Unleashed tend to carry well beyond Orlando.
