Gridline Summit brings together 1,800 grid engineers, storage operators, policy leaders, and the founders building the hardware behind the transition — for three days of working sessions, not keynotes-for-keynotes'-sake.
Early-bird pricing ends September 5. 62% of passes already sold.
No generalist "future of energy" panels. Sessions are scoped to the people who sign off on interconnection queues, procure storage, and write the grid code.
Reinforcement priorities, congestion pricing in practice, and what the interconnection queues are actually telling us about 2028.
Real PPA structures, degradation data from 40+ deployed fleets, and revenue stacking across ancillary markets.
The permitting and financing bottlenecks, with the regulators and funders in the room to talk about them directly.
Every session is capped at 120 people and ends with a 20-minute Q&A. The full 60-session program ships August 1.
Opening: The Queue as a Signal
What 40,000 GW of queued projects reveal about where the grid is heading
Workshop: Modeling Congestion on a Live Testbed
Hands-on with a scaled replica of the German–Dutch border corridor
Panel: Interconnection Reform — What Actually Passed
Regulators from three markets on the first-year results of queue reform
The Degradation Data Nobody Wanted to Publish
A consortium of operators shares 5 years of fleet-level battery health data
Fireside: Structuring the First 100-MWh Community Storage PPAs
Term sheets on the table, redlines included
Demo Floor: 14 Hardware Startups, 10 Minutes Each
Grid-forming inverters, solid-state pilot lines, and the failures in between
Closed Session: The Permitting Backlog, Quantified
New data from 1,200 transmission projects across the EU
Closing: 2030 Is a Construction Site
A practical close from the summit's organizing committee — with the year's commitments, in writing

A former power station on the Spree — fitting, for a summit about power. 120 Oberbaumstraße, 10245 Berlin. 10 minutes from S-Bahn Ostkreuz; we've reserved the 18:40 and 21:15 trains' adjacent parking for attendees.
Mainstage sessions are livestreamed for digital pass holders, but workshops, the demo floor, and closed sessions are in person only. About 70% of the value is in the rooms, honestly.
Yes — full refund up to 30 days before the event for documented visa or travel issues, no forms beyond a short email. After that, passes are transferable to a colleague for free.
Mainstage yes, workshops no. Speakers are told this at confirmation — several sessions only happen because the room is off-record.
A 24-person committee of operators and engineers, not a marketing team. Sessions are ranked by the committee and the top 60 make the program. Last year's most-voted session came from a first-time speaker at a 40-person workshop.
Early-bird pricing ends September 5. 62% of passes are gone.
