Why Attend Data Center POWER eXchange?
The scale and speed of data center growth is rewriting the rules of power infrastructure. Load forecasts are rising fast. Interconnection queues are tightening. Policy, capital, and technology decisions are converging in real time. If you’re responsible for enabling large-scale digital growth, DPX is where those decisions come into focus.
Taking place in Washington, D.C.—the nation’s policy epicenter and one of the fastest-growing power and data center markets—DPX puts you at the center of the regulatory, investment, and infrastructure conversations shaping what comes next.
Where power, policy, and data centers converge.
The rapid growth of data centers, rising electricity demand, and the policy decisions shaping both are no longer happening in isolation. They’re converging across infrastructure, investment, and regulation, creating new pressure on how quickly the industry can respond.
There is no better place to have that conversation than Washington, D.C.
By the numbers*:
- 70% of the world’s internet traffic flows through Northern Virginia
- 35%+ of global hyperscale data center capacity is concentrated in the region
- Up to 17% of U.S. electricity demand could come from data centers by 2030
- Hundreds of data center-related policies are being introduced across the U.S. each year
A Program Built for Decision-Making
The 2026 program moves beyond theory to focus on what matters now: constraints → decisions → execution.
Through a single-track format, every attendee is part of the same core conversations—creating a shared baseline for dialogue, faster alignment, and more meaningful exchange across sectors. From permitting and interconnection to on-site generation, grid capacity, and long-term planning, sessions are designed to help you move from understanding the challenge to acting on it.
