The EV Charging Summit & Expo returns for its 2026 edition as North America’s largest and most influential event dedicated to the electrification of transportation infrastructure. Taking place March 17-19, 2026, at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino, this premier gathering brings together over 5,000 attendees, 200 speakers, and 240 exhibitors to shape the future of EV charging.
AMPECO is proud to exhibit at Booth #1601, where our team will showcase our EV charging management platform and discuss how we help CPOs scale their charging operations across North America and globally. Michael Greenberg, SVP of Growth, will participate in two panel discussions and one additional speaker session exploring charger utilization strategies and managed charging programs, critical topics as the industry moves from deployment to optimization.
The summit addresses the most pressing challenges facing the industry today: financing, operability, fleet electrification, infrastructure deployment, and ROI for EV charging projects. With 65 sessions spanning three days, attendees gain practical insights from real-world deployments and lessons learned across the ecosystem.
SPEAKING SESSIONS
Join Michael Greenberg, SVP of Growth at AMPECO, as a panelist alongside Amber Putignano (ABB) and Nate Steele (Hubject), moderated by Daniel Engelman (Ubicquia), on Wednesday, March 18th at 1:40 PM PT at Westgate Las Vegas.
The promise of EV charging isn’t just about installing hardware. It’s about ensuring stations stay active, reliable, and profitable. As adoption accelerates, utilization rates will determine whether networks thrive or stall. This session brings together leaders across the EV ecosystem, from charging platform providers and global hardware manufacturers to operators working directly with site hosts, to unpack the strategies that drive more drivers to plugs, keep chargers running at peak performance, and turn infrastructure into sustainable business models.
Key Takeaways:
- Proven methods for boosting charger utilization and revenue potential
- How interoperability and roaming partnerships expand customer access
- Operational strategies to minimize downtime and maximize reliability
- Real-world examples of utilization challenges and solutions from industry leaders
Michael Greenberg, SVP of Growth at AMPECO, moderates this panel discussion on Thursday, March 19th at 1:45 PM PT at Westgate Las Vegas, bringing together experts from Con Edison, Duke Energy, and Flipturn.
As EV adoption accelerates and commercial charging volume spikes, managed charging programs are becoming essential for maintaining grid reliability while controlling operational costs. This session explores how utilities, CPOs, and commercial site hosts can work together to strategically align charging loads with local grid conditions—lowering peak demand, improving energy efficiency, and enabling more predictable operating expenses.
Key Takeaways:
- How commercial managed charging programs reduce peak demand charges and improve cost predictability
- Best practices for coordinating with utilities to align charging schedules with grid capacity
- Technology solutions (hardware + software) that enable dynamic load shifting and real-time optimization
- Incentive structures and program models that benefit site hosts, operators, fleets, and utilities alike
