Fueling AI Data Center Demand: Exploring all aspects of commercial transactions spanning the value chain for natgas fueling electricity generation to power AI Data Centers
Massive new incremental electric demand, spearheaded by AI Data Centers, is surpassing the capability of existing power infrastructure. This demands innovation in energy supply strategies to effectively address the insatiable demand of AI Data Centers. The NatGas To Power Forum is uniquely focused on insights and practical solutions to commercializing innovations across the value chain.
Key Topics:
Scope: Commercial transactions related to nat gas fueling electricity generation to power AI Data Centers (natgas supply, transportation, natgas powergen, electricity sale)
Value Chain: natgas fuel supply, pipelines, utilities, sales/marketing, Data Center project development
Stakeholders: Data Center owner/operators, Hyperscalers, Data Center developers, utilities, ISOs, IPPs, on-site power, micro-grids, gas power plant operators, gas producers, marketers, pipelines, key product/service providers
Siting Strategies: utility – on-system / off-system, natgas supply, access pipeline access, internet bandwidth, infrastructure permitting, new interconnections
The AI Data Center market is a global competition, with major players—especially China—racing to secure market share. We must act swiftly to identify prime locations, streamline planning, and accelerate construction to bring facilities online as soon as possible. This includes ensuring natural gas supply, pipeline access, power plants, grid connections, local site development, and economic incentives. Let’s discuss it!
These topics and more will be explored, with expert insights provided by key industry stakeholders, at the LDC Gas Forums (4), Gulf Coast Energy Forum, U.S.-Mexico Forum, and at the inaugural NatGas To Power Forum in November 2025 in San Antonio, TX.
