IESNA Texas will pair serious energy discussion with hot sauce sampling (among other cool enhancements)
Intersolar & Energy Storage North America (IESNA) unveiled an expanded program for IESNA Texas, its regional event taking place November 18-19, 2025 at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine, TX. Building on its successful debut, this year’s event offers a substantially larger exhibit hall and programming designed to address the challenges and opportunities facing Texas’ clean energy market — including a very fun “Hot Ones”-style panel discussion.
“The growth of IESNA Texas 2025 is bolstered by strategic program developments intended to provide industry professionals with greater opportunities for business, networking, education, and celebration in this regional market,” said Beckie Kier, Event Director, Intersolar & Energy Storage North America.
