Energy experts from industry, academia, government and regulatory agencies, and non-profit organizations will gather on The University of Texas at Austin campus Feb. 4 – 8, 2019 to discuss some of the most vital energy issues facing society.

The conference, now in its fifth year, is organized by the Longhorn Energy Club in collaboration with the university’s Energy Institute and is supported by UT Austin schools and colleges engaged in energy-related research. A second student organization, the Texas Journal of Oil, Gas, and Energy Law, also will host two days of continuing education courses during the weeklong event.

UT Energy Week 2019 will feature a variety of presentations and panel discussions on topics ranging from energy security and funding of emerging markets to the analytics of electricity forecasting and the geopolitics of energy. Stay tuned for updates and a final program.

More than 500 people attended last year’s conference, which featured an exploration of energy topics ranging from trends in smart mobility networks; the advent of ridesharing services, self-driving cars and electric vehicles; and the newest innovation in the oil and gas industry.
