News: Letter from Southern Company
In March, our industry will gather in Atlanta for DTECH® 2027, and Southern Company and Georgia Power are proud to serve as the host utilities. We look forward to welcoming you to the Georgia World Congress Center, March 1-4.
Our industry is at a defining moment, investing to support growth and modernize the grid while staying focused on the fundamentals our customers count on every day: reliability and affordability. How utilities deploy innovative strategies and next-generation tools to meet this moment will look different, and DTECH is the perfect place to share best practices and insights.
Georgia is a fitting backdrop for these conversations. Innovation, collaboration and leadership have long shaped our state’s energy story, and I’m proud that DTECH will give Southern Company and Georgia Power an opportunity to share the important work our teams are advancing across the region.
