HOUSTON, April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The 10th Annual North American Environment, Energy & Natural Resources Conference is bringing together senior industry leaders, legal professionals, and policymakers to examine the issues shaping North America’s energy landscape to the University of Houston Law Center this week.
Titled “From Port to Power Grid: Energy Infrastructure, Demand, and the Path Forward,” the conference will explore the intersection of infrastructure, logistics, grid reliability, and rising energy demand. As supply chains, ports, and data‑driven technologies increasingly influence how energy is produced, transported, and consumed, the program will focus on practical, business‑oriented insights for navigating this rapidly changing environment.
The conference will take place Tuesday, April 28, 2026, from 1 to 5 p.m., followed by a networking reception from 5 to 7 p.m., in the John M. O’Quinn Law Building at the University of Houston Law Center. The in-person event is jointly hosted by UHLC’s Environment, Energy and Natural Resources (EENR) Center and Blank Rome LLP.
The conference program includes:
- Keynote conversations with Seth Cohen, chief counsel for nuclear policy at the U.S. Department of Energy, and Parker Harrison, incoming chief legal officer of Port Houston.
- New opportunities in energy panel discussion
- A moderated discussion with UH Law Dean Leonard M. Baynes and in-house general counsels and senior executives from the energy sector.
This annual conference draws energy executives, investors, in‑house counsel, and advisors from across North America. The EENR Center’s goal is to provide a setting that encourages candid conversation and offers insight into how industry leaders are thinking about the future of energy infrastructure and demand.
The program is expected to be approved for 240 minutes of CLE credit.
