Share Your Energy Story

EnergyTech is looking for real-world stories, solutions and insights from commercial, industrial and mission-critical energy users.

EnergyTech, the voice of the commercial, industrial and mission-critical energy user, is seeking original articles from companies and organizations that are managing, purchasing, producing or using energy to meet their operational needs.

We want to hear directly from the people making energy decisions and putting new technologies, strategies and solutions to work. Whether your organization has implemented an innovative energy project, solved a complex operational challenge, adopted new technologies or developed a different approach to managing energy, we want to share your experience with our readers.

We're looking for practical, educational content that helps other energy users understand what works, what doesn't, and what they can learn from your experience.

What We're Looking For

We welcome several types of submissions:

1. Case Studies: Real-World Projects and Results

Tell us about an energy project your organization has completed or is actively operating. Examples might include:

  • Implementing a microgrid, battery energy storage system or other distributed energy resource

  • Improving energy reliability and resilience at a commercial or industrial facility

  • Managing electricity costs, demand charges or growing energy requirements

  • Integrating renewable energy, storage or backup power into facility operations

  • Improving energy efficiency or optimizing energy consumption

  • Meeting the power demands of data centers and other energy-intensive facilities

  • Deploying advanced controls, energy management systems or other technologies

The strongest case studies explain the challenge, the approach taken, the technologies or strategies involved, and the results. Whenever possible, include measurable outcomes such as energy savings, cost reductions, improved reliability, emissions reductions or operational improvements.

2. Technical and Educational Articles

Have expertise or experience that could help other energy users make better decisions? We welcome technical and educational articles that explain technologies, applications, operational considerations or lessons learned.

Topics might include energy procurement, onsite power generation, battery storage, microgrids, backup power, grid interconnection, power quality, energy management, electrification, data center power and emerging energy technologies.

These articles should provide useful, actionable information rather than serve as product or company promotions.

3. The Energy Buyer's Perspective

We also want to hear from the people responsible for making energy decisions. Share your perspective on the challenges, priorities and opportunities shaping energy use across commercial, industrial and mission-critical facilities.

Potential topics include:

  • How organizations are approaching rising electricity costs and demand

  • Evaluating energy investments and calculating return on investment

  • Balancing reliability, resilience, sustainability and affordability

  • Planning for facility expansion and increasing power requirements

  • Navigating utility relationships, grid constraints and interconnection challenges

  • Making the business case for new energy technologies

  • Lessons learned from energy projects that didn't go as planned

Submission Guidelines

For editorial consideration, please provide:

  1. An original article of approximately 1,000 to 1,500 words. Case studies should include the problem or business need, the solution or approach, implementation details and results. Technical and educational articles should offer substantive information and practical takeaways for energy users.

  2. At least one author with direct knowledge of the project, technology application or energy-management experience. We particularly welcome contributions from facility managers, energy managers, engineering leaders, sustainability professionals, operations personnel and other commercial or industrial energy users. Technology providers and consultants may also contribute, particularly when partnering with an end-user organization.

  3. Two to three sentences of biographical information for each author. Please include the author's title, organization and relevant experience.

  4. Supporting visuals. Please submit two to four original photographs, diagrams, charts or other relevant images when available. We don't require the volume or print resolution of magazine photography, but visuals should be clear, high-quality and relevant to the article. Please provide captions and credits.

  5. Supporting graphics and data. Charts, diagrams and technical illustrations are welcome. Please provide original or editable files when possible, along with any necessary explanations or source information.

Articles should be original and not primarily promotional. EnergyTech reserves the right to edit submissions for length, clarity, style and editorial focus.

What Makes a Strong Submission?

We're especially interested in stories that:

  • Feature a real commercial, industrial or mission-critical energy user.

  • Describe an actual project, application, challenge or decision.

  • Explain why a particular approach or technology was selected.

  • Include practical details that readers can apply to their own facilities or operations.

  • Provide measurable results, where available.

  • Offer lessons learned, including challenges encountered along the way.

Vendor and technology-provider contributions are welcome, but submissions should be educational, technically substantive and grounded in real-world applications. A named end-user organization or customer perspective is strongly encouraged for case studies.
