Shape the Future of Energy: Exclusive Invitation
Dear Esteemed Colleague,
The world is at an inflection point, grappling with the urgency of rewiring energy systems
while weathering new geopolitical and climate-related storms. Global energy transitions are
ambitious, large-scale systems transformations that are deeply human – shaping and being
shaped by the lives, livelihoods, cultures, and communities they touch.
On behalf of the World Energy Council Secretary General & CEO, Dr Angela Wilkinson, and
in my capacity as Chair of the Council’s Insights & Foresight Committee, I am pleased to
invite you to an exclusive World Energy Council Executive Dialogue to explore the key
findings of the 2025 World Energy Issues Monitor and their implications for decision-
makers like you.
World Energy Transitions in Motion: Navigating the Patterns of Change
This year’s Issues Monitor reveals evolving patterns in global energy transitions –
highlighting shared priorities, shifting regional dynamics, and persistent blind spots. It
underscores how accelerating energy demand – driven by digital competition and security
concerns – clashes with rigid governance structures, fluctuating policies, and fragile public
engagement. In a world of rising risks and deepening inequalities, the real challenge is not
just identifying these dynamics but turning blind spots into bright spots. What solutions
are working, and how can they be adapted across regions? How do we move from
fragmented responses to truly systemic change?
2
This Executive Dialogue “World Energy Transitions in Motion” is designed as a strategic
and action-oriented conversation, focusing on leadership, collaboration and innovation in
energy transitions. The future of energy is not just about what powers our systems – it is
about who they empower and how we harness human collective wisdom to shape more
inclusive, resilient, and sustainable energy futures for billions of lives and a healthy planet.
I look forward to your participation in what promises to be a highly informative and thought-
provoking session. Don't miss this opportunity to engage in peer-to-peer exchange and to
gain actionable insights from leading voices in energy transitions.
To accommodate different time zones, we will be hosting two sessions:
• Session 1: Tuesday 8 April at 8 am UK | Register – HERE
• Session 2: Wednesday 9 April at 3 pm UK | Register – HERE
Spots are limited. To secure your place, please register at your earliest convenience. If you
have any questions, feel free to contact [email protected].
Thank you for your leadership and commitment to shaping a resilient future. I look forward to
welcoming you to this important conversation.
Warm regards,
