RECHARGEing Energy Storage Strategy
The energy storage industry is moving fast. What was once an emerging technology is now critical American energy infrastructure—supporting grid reliability, strengthening domestic supply chains, creating new investment opportunities, and helping meet rising electricity demand across the country.
Energy storage is increasingly valued as essential infrastructure for America’s energy future. Development decisions have evolved to where storage will be deployed at scale, how projects will be financed, which technologies will lead the market, and what policies and market structures will unlock the full value of storage for consumers and communities.
ACP RECHARGE: Energy Storage Conference is where these discussions happen. From September 22–24, energy storage industry leaders will convene in Aurora, Colorado, just outside of Denver, for the conversations, connections, and market intelligence needed to move the industry forward. RECHARGE brings together the decision makers shaping the future of storage: utilities, developers, investors, technology companies, manufacturers, policymakers, and energy executives. With 70% of attendees holding buying power, this is a forum built not just for ideas, but for industry-shaping action.
Exploring answers to the industry’s biggest questions
ACP RECHARGE’s 2026 program reflects the speed and complexity of today’s storage market. Attendees will dig into the issues defining the industry’s next chapter: grid reliability, wholesale-market evolution, project finance, domestic manufacturing, supply chains, safety, cybersecurity, software, artificial intelligence, and emerging storage technologies.
The event opens Tuesday with Energy Storage 101, a pre-conference workshop designed to immerse participants in the technology, economics, and market dynamics driving storage deployment. From there, the agenda moves directly into the business and policy discussions that will shape what gets built next: electricity prices, the role of storage alongside flexible load, domestic mineral leadership, and the race to bring more capacity online.
Insights that lead to action
Later in the program, RECHARGE will focus squarely at the opportunities and constraints confronting the industry. Sessions will highlight the national energy storage market outlook; advanced power electronics; federal tax guidance and financing uncertainty; cybersecurity; supply chains; recycling; long-duration storage; and the increasingly important relationship between storage and large-load growth.
RECHARGE will also explore what it takes to deploy storage responsibly and at scale. The agenda includes conversations on community engagement, tariffs and trade, regional market reforms, and fire-incident monitoring. These discussions will culminate in a celebration of industry achievements, honoring exceptional leadership in safety, innovation, policy advancement, and landmark project developments. advanced post-conference workshops
As the market evolves, companies must be prepared to identify new opportunities, adapt to changing demand, and make investments that can support a durable domestic storage supply chain. RECHARGE gives attendees the chance to engage directly with the people navigating those decisions in real time.
Be part of what’s next
RECHARGE is where attendees can meet prospective customers, partners, investors, and collaborators; explore the latest technologies and services; and turn a shared understanding of the market into actionable next steps. Leave ready to move the industry—and your business—forward.
The future of energy storage is being decided now. Help shape it at ACP RECHARGE.
