2026 Southwest Utility Energy Efficiency Workshop

The 2026 Workshop will provide attendees with opportunities to hear about the latest demand-side management program developments from utilities across the region, discuss emerging energy efficiency technologies and program design, electric vehicles and clean transportation, land use policy, data centers, AI, and much more. There will be plenty of opportunities to network with utility, regulatory, state, nonprofit, and industry leaders from across the Southwest. This year's expanded welcome reception will also serve as a special celebration of SWEEP's 25th anniversary, giving attendees the chance to reflect on a quarter-century of progress, reconnect with colleagues, and help launch the next chapter of SWEEP's work. This event is free and by invitation only. While attendance is complimentary, registration is required.
