Additive Manufacturing is reshaping the future of the energy sector: nuclear, renewables, oil & gas, turbomachinery, and beyond. From next-gen energy storage to topology-optimized turbine components, from printed heat exchangers to on-demand part replacement in extreme environments, AM is no longer a lab experiment: it’s a strategic tool.
AMA:Energy convenes global experts who are advancing the use of AM across energy production, distribution, and system resilience. The 2025 program will explore how additive manufacturing is enabling sustainability, extending equipment lifecycles, hardening infrastructure, and accelerating design-to-field timelines in a transforming global energy landscape.

What We’re Looking For at AMA:Energy 2025
We welcome applications from engineers, scientists, operators, vendors, regulators, and researchers working at the intersection of energy and additive: whether in deployment, R&D, quality control, or policy.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
Nuclear & Advanced Reactors
- AM-qualified materials for high-temperature, neutron-rich, or corrosive environments
- Regulatory acceptance and QA frameworks
- AM for small modular reactors (SMRs) and fusion systems
- Case studies in part qualification, licensing, or plant repair
Turbomachinery & Rotating Equipment
- Topology optimization for blades, nozzles, and stators
- Cold spray repair of high-value rotating parts
- Lifecycle extension via component remanufacturing
- Fatigue life modelling and microstructural validation
Storage, Cooling, and Emerging Systems
- Additive heat exchangers for batteries, hydrogen, or nanofluid systems
- Printed flow field plates, microchannel reactors, and energy harvesting devices
- AM in green data centers: efficient cooling, corrosion-resistant internals
- Ceramics, metal-ceramic hybrids, or AM-integrated cooling loops
Oil, Gas, and Harsh Environments
- Corrosion-resistant AM alloys for subsea / offshore systems
- Printed valves, manifolds, and downhole tools
- Performance validation in high-pressure / high-temperature (HPHT) environments
- Cold spray and directed energy deposition (DED) for maintenance in-situ
AM at Scale – Infrastructure & Deployment
- Digital thread and supply chain integration for AM in the field
- Certification and repeatability across global energy deployments
- Software platforms for simulation, testing, and real-time feedback
- Lifecycle analysis: sustainability, circularity, and cost-per-MWh impact
Materials, Testing, and Innovation
- Novel alloys and ceramic composites for high-performance applications
- In-process monitoring and nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques
- Fatigue, creep, and corrosion modelling in AM-fabricated energy parts
- Printed tooling and fixturing for component fabrication and assembly
