The Inaugural NatGas To Power Forum is a new event purposefully produced to focus on the energy industry response to the unprecedented demand for incremental power to serve Data Centers that house computer processing to support Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other technologies. Historically, Data Centers have obtained power primarily from their local utility on the electric grid. However, the existing U.S. electrical grid is simply incapable of satisfying all the phenomenal incremental electrical demand forecasted with the tidal wave of new Data Center development. As a result, much of this incremental electrical demand will require development of new power generation infrastructure. Natural gas has emerged as the preferred fuel for power generation, because it is available quickly, reliably, and affordably.
The NatGas To Power Forum will examine the who, what, when, where, and why of utilizing natural gas to fuel electricity generation for Data Centers. Presentations and panel discussions by knowledgeable industry experts will provide insight and advice on relevant topics. With most Data Center operators and developers unfamiliar with the intricacies of the natural gas to power value chain, the NatGas To Power Forum offers a unique opportunity to learn about processes, supply chain and solution providers. Stakeholders across the value chain will have the opportunity to meet prospective customers, as well as counterparties, and solution providers.
The Format for the NatGas to Power Forum consists of 2 ½ days of Presentations and moderated Panels providing topical content and insight from industry leaders and subject matter experts. In addition, The Program also allocates multiple sessions of dedicated time for networking, to facilitate discussion with stakeholders, interaction with speakers, and to meet and connect with existing and prospective customers and key product/service suppliers.
The NatGas to Power Forum Agenda is structured to explore market opportunities, understand requirements, and ultimately to configure solutions. Topics include all aspects of monetizing transactions to develop and sustain the capability to utilize natural gas to generate electricity to serve Data Centers. Key topics include:
- Power requirements for Data Centers (including 99.999% reliability)
- Why natural gas is the optimal electric generation fuel for Data Centers
- How to generate electricity from natural gas (Natural Gas 101)
- Considerations For Siting Data Centers
- Commercial transaction structuring for natural gas fueled power generation
- Natural gas market analysis an fundamentals
- Identifying key stakeholders across the value chain (natural gas producers, marketers, pipelines, utilities, grid operators, power generators, major technology firms, data center owner/operators, developers, policymakers, etc.)
- Other: Policy/Regulatory; Clean Energy options; Technology Innovations
Even in today’s digital age, natural gas market participants appreciate an event that facilitates face-to-face interaction. The NatGas To Power Forum is uniquely structured to meet this expectation. Registration for the NatGas To Power Forum is available now. Register at https://www.ldcgasforums.com/ngtp/. Sponsorships and Speaking opportunities are also available – contact Christy Coleman [email protected] for more information.
The NatGas to Power Forum, LDC Gas Forums (4), and Gulf Coast Energy Forum series consists of six annual events, each focused on a key natural gas market region across North America. The Forums have been the venue of choice for thousands of participants for decades. This is where buyers and sellers meet to do business. Much more than simply conferences, the Forums are a well-structured event that delivers insights into critical issues affecting natural gas, LNG, natural gas power generation, and emerging energy markets, but in addition, provide participants opportunities to meet with industry counterparts to complete commercial business transactions. Timely panel discussions featuring key industry experts focus on important questions facing buyers, sellers, transportation operators, service/product suppliers, and other market stakeholders in competitive energy markets. Topics addressed include: natural gas market fundamentals (supply/demand) and price forecasting; LNG exports; natural gas power generation demand (incl. AI Data Centers); gas/electric coordination; natural gas infrastructure additions; energy policy, regulation and legal; Mexico natural gas exports; natural gas end user perspectives; virtual pipeline solutions; technology innovations for energy; energy evolution/additions providing supply security, affordability, and lower carbon alternatives (incl. certified gas, RNG, CCS).
Regular participants at the Forums include C-Suite market leaders, decision makers and subject matter experts, representing all segments of the commercial natural gas value chain including utilities, industrial gas consumers, producers, pipelines, marketers, key service/product providers, as well as policy makers, regulators and market analysts. Multiple dedicated networking sessions give you access to your clients, prospects, and peers to pursue opportunities in the market.

New inspirational release explores resilience, purpose, and personal growth during life’s most difficult seasons.
Author Nick Robinson announces the release of Thriving in the Wilderness: Discovering the Secrets God Has Hidden in the Dry and Difficult Seasons of Life, an inspirational book written for readers navigating hardship, uncertainty, and seasons of personal challenge.
In Thriving in the Wilderness, Robinson explores the idea that difficult seasons can become turning points rather than setbacks. Through personal reflection, timeless life lessons, and examples of endurance, the book encourages readers to look at hardship as a period of preparation, growth, and renewed direction.
The book examines common struggles such as discouragement, waiting, loss, fear, frustration, and the search for meaning. Robinson presents the “wilderness” as a symbol for the dry and difficult periods people often face, whether emotionally, personally, professionally, or spiritually. Rather than viewing those seasons as wasted time, he invites readers to see them as opportunities to develop strength, character, patience, and purpose.
“I have personally walked through many wilderness experiences,” Robinson shares in the book. “Through these times I have learned to put my trust in the Lord and not lean on my own understanding.”
Thriving in the Wilderness is designed for readers who may feel stuck, overlooked, or uncertain about what comes next. Robinson offers practical encouragement for moving through difficult moments without losing hope, identity, or direction.
The book also includes reflection sections that invite readers to examine their own experiences and consider what they may be learning through the challenges they face. With its accessible message and encouraging tone, Thriving in the Wilderness reminds readers that difficult seasons can shape them for something greater.
