Evolving the AEE World Learning Experience: One Hour Long Technical Sessions

At AEE World, our goal has always been simple: deliver the knowledge and connections that matter most to the energy community. Each year, we listen closely to your feedback and expand the program to make sure it offers the most value possible. 

One of the things we’ve consistently heard from attendees is that while 30-minute technical sessions are excellent for updates and quick learning across multiple topics, some subjects demand more time. Certain issues — like the evolving federal energy market, the rise of AI in energy management, or the role of fuel cells in industrial growth — spark deep curiosity and deserve a chance for richer exploration than a half-hour can provide. 

Instead of four shorter presentations, you’ll find two 1-hour sessions designed as deep dives for one afternoon. These longer presentations allow you to go further with the material, ask more questions, and walk away with practical insights you can bring back to your work. 

Here is a preview of the themes you’ll see in this year’s hour-long sessions:

• The Evolving Federal Energy Market 
• AI and Digital Tools for Energy Optimization in Industrial Processes 
• Powering Through Grid Limitations: The Role of Fuel Cells in Industrial and Data Center Expansion 
• Ammonia’s Path to World-Scale, and Where It Goes Next 
• The Future of Buildings: How AI Will Truly Revolutionize the Built World 
• Decoding Scope 3 Emissions: AI-Driven Supplier Sustainability Insights and Analytics 
• Decarbonization Assessments – New to ASHRAE Standard 211 
• Automating and Integrating Benchmarking, Energy Modeling, and Financial Tools for Targeted Building Performance Goals 

By combining quick-hit sessions with extended deep dives, we’re evolving how we learn together at AEE World — making sure you leave not just informed, but inspired and equipped with knowledge that lasts. 

Join us in Atlanta, GA, USA from September 17-19, 2025, for عالم AEE, and see how this new format enriches the learning experience.
