World Energy Week

WORLD ENERGY WEEK

World Energy Week (WEW) provides a powerful platform for global energy leaders and practitioners to come together to discuss significant developments facing the energy system and set the priorities of the world energy community.

World Energy Week brings together the World Energy community every year to:

• Convene energy leaders and practitioners from across the spectrum of the energy system to identify and set the priorities of the world energy community;
• Share insights and perspectives on new developments and experiences across the global energy system and how each country can address its energy trilemma;
• Catalyse thought leadership;
• Assess strategic priorities for the Council across content, network and platforms, allowing time for regional and global communities to come together

The event brings together more than 350 professionals from all parts of the world, representing national, regional and global energy systems and sectors.
