Public power is entering the most consequential period in the history of the U.S. electric grid. On November 3rd and 4th, LPPC's 2026 Members Conference will bring together the leaders of the nation's largest public power utilities to Austin, Texas to confront the challenges and opportunities ahead. Hear from the CEOs of co-host utilities Stuart Reilly of @austinenergy and @RudyDGarza of @LCRA on why this conference matters — and how LPPC members are preparing to meet unprecedented load growth while continuing to deliver the reliable, affordable energy more than 30 million Americans expect and deserve.
