What it is
The Smart Grid Observer, an online news portal and weekly newsletter for the smart energy industry, runs this two-day conference on building out EV charging that is reliable and grid-ready. The summit moves between cities: the July 2026 meeting was in Chicago. The programme brings together utility, charging, automotive, fleet and technology leaders, with case studies on deployment.
Who attends
The organiser lists network strategists and executives at investor-owned, municipal and rural utilities; charging network operators; grid engineers and planners; EV program and fleet managers; charger manufacturers and charging-site owners; auto OEMs; consultants and system integrators; and regulatory, standards and municipal transportation professionals.
Practical notes
The January 2027 speaker list is still being built, and the organiser is taking speaking proposals. Sponsorship and exhibit packages are available, and the site's most recent agenda (Chicago, July 2026) shows a two-day format with networking breaks and a first-day reception.
