As AI and data center demand surge, utilities face unprecedented load growth that is outpacing the grid’s ability to deliver. Long interconnection queues and transmission constraints are leaving customers underserved. In this session, we’ll explore how proven, scalable fuel cell technology goes beyond being an alternative, providing a reliable, fast‑deploying generation solution that bridges power gaps and captures underserved load.

Whether you’re evaluating distributed generation options, navigating permitting challenges, or seeking scalable alternatives to traditional combustion technologies, this session will equip you with the knowledge to integrate fuel cells into your portfolio.

What You’ll Learn:

• Identify where fuel cells are most applicable for adding high-efficiency, dispatchable capacity with lower exposure to intermittency and fuel price volatility
• Assess how to incorporate fuel cells into decarbonization plans, from alternate fuel pathways to CCUS and integration with broader carbon management strategies
• Apply lessons from real deployments, using 1.8GW+ deployed globally to inform modular siting, faster timelines, and impacts on local reliability and emissions
