"Empowering utilities; transforming tomorrow," the theme of the 2025 T&D World Live conference and exhibition, embodied the presentations, panels and conversations happening at the event in Phoenix.
Six countries, 30 states and 43 utility companies were represented at the show, and several trends and issues rose to the forefront. Energy policy, customer affordability, load growth and AI in operations were among the threads running throughout the three days of activity.
Following are images from the this year's event; watch our our wrap-up T&D World Live podcast coming out this month.
Next year, T&D World Live heads to Orlando, the week before Labor Day—a great time to connect with Southeast utilities and, perhaps, tack on a bit of vacation time. The call for speakers will open in January, and as always, we’re especially interested in hearing utility-led stories and practical, experience-based insights.
