Energy Policy Research Foundation President Lucian Pugliaresi has been asked to speak at the Worshipful Company of Fuellers’ Duke of Edinburgh Future Energy Conference on December 2, 2025. This is the fourth conference in this series, and will cover a wide range of issues. From the Fuellers’ website:
“Chaired by the Master Fueller, the conference features a dynamic programme of keynote speeches and high-level panel discussions tackling the most pressing issues shaping the future of energy. Held under the Chatham House Rule, the forum welcomes senior leaders from across the energy, finance and technology sectors, both from the UK and internationally, alongside members of the Fuellers and other City of London Livery Companies. As with the Fuellers’ membership itself, the conference is open to anyone with a professional or personal interest in energy.”

Dominick Blue
Distinguished Fellow
Dominick Blue is a Distinguished Fellow at the Energy Policy Research Foundation (EPRINC), where his research focuses on energy resilience, reliability, and the secure integration of emerging technologies into the power sector. His current work examines the intersection of advanced computing, infrastructure planning, and national energy security.Dominick’s research portfolio includes analysis of AI and data center electricity demand-forecasting regional load growth, reliability implications, siting dynamics, and market coordination. He also leads studies on grid modernization and energy security, assessing resilience investments, interconnection constraints, and federal–state coordination under higher load scenarios. His additional work explores the revival of the U.S. nuclear sector, financing and licensing pathways for advanced reactors, and rebuilding domestic manufacturing capacity to support the nuclear supply chain.Further research areas include gas-to-power infrastructure, pipeline and turbine capacity, and the role of gas in maintaining reliability within a diversified generation mix. Across these topics, Dominick focuses on translating complex technical findings into accessible policy insights for decision-makers at DOE, FERC, and state regulatory agencies.Before joining EPRINC, Dominick held senior leadership roles in infrastructure, technology, and risk management, including Managing Partner and Director of Client Innovation for private investment and global critical infrastructure firms, respectively. A former U.S. Marine Corps Chief Warrant Officer Two in CBRN Defense, he brings a mission-driven perspective to energy resilience and safety. He holds a Masters of Business from the University of Southern California and has completed graduate studies in Computer Science at Georgia Tech, with research interests in AI systems, resilient infrastructure, and energy transition security.
