About the Program

As artificial intelligence (“AI”) reshapes the energy landscape in Texas, data centers are driving power demand, regulatory complexity, and infrastructure investment. This program covers aspects of development—energy procurement, permitting, zoning, compliance, and grid reliability—along with evolving technical needs. For Houston in-house counsel, it offers practical insight into legal, regulatory, and technology issues at the intersection of data centers, AI, and energy to support confident, forward-looking advice.
