Reuters Events: Energy Transition MENA 2023

MENA's energy mix is changing. Pressure to achieve net-zero is mounting, dominating discourse in the search for a more sustainable and secure energy future. With an ambitious vision to seamlessly integrate cutting-edge renewable infrastructure and reduce dependencies on traditional fuels, MENA leaders are embracing the regions' unique capacity to set the international standard for an effective global energy transition.

Vulnerabilities entrenched into traditional energy systems are beginning to surface. Balancing competing security, sustainability, and equity objectives in a fast-paced market hinges upon collaboration between public and private stakeholders to enact essential cross sector structural changes. From progressive policy and regulatory initiatives to the mobilization of green finance supporting digital innovation, renewable developments, and decarbonization, action taken now will prove critical to success.

Energy Transition MENA 2023 (December 6-7, Dubai) represents a unification of decision makers with the power and incentive to shape the region's energy agenda. Running on the side lines of COP28, Reuters Events' will build on the global net-zero objectives outlined by the convention and embed these into a tailored regional strategy to Unlock MENA's Energy Potential.
