Southwest Power and Industrial Symposium
September 2 & 3, 2026 | Arlington, TX | In-Person Only
A technical event bringing together professionals from the power generation and industrial sectors.
Event Overview
The Southwest Power & Industrial Symposium (SWPIS) is a technical and educational event bringing together professionals from the power generation and industrial sectors to share insights, best practices, and real-world solutions. With a focus on operational reliability, system performance, and sustainable plant operations, SWPIS creates an environment for meaningful learning and collaboration.

Presentations and conversations will center around the challenges and innovations shaping today’s facilities — from water and process treatment to efficiency improvements and long-term asset protection.
