Keynote Description
Recent events in Europe over the last 3 years have put tremendous pressure on our energy systems. Energy security is front and center on everyone’s mind and while many believe that achieving energy security can be incompatible with the ongoing energy transition, we believe that the right government policies and decisions from the businesses can in fact accelerate the green transition and achieve a higher degree of energy security for the planet. Focus on reinforcing our supply chains and creating clear regulatory frameworks to restore investor confidence in long term investments will be critical to achieve secure and sustainable future energy supplies.
