Overview

The energy industry is entering a new era of uncertainty. The political turmoil which has gripped the Middle East and North Africa is creating concerns over security of supply and oil prices. The recent accident at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan has challenged our assumptions about the role of nuclear in the future energy mix, and the continuing uncertainty about the economy is forcing governments to reflect on their energy priorities' and in some cases, reconsider their support for renewables. Meanwhile, energy demand is growing and carbon emissions are increasing. What are the likely implications of these unfolding events for the future of the energy industry? The FT Global Energy Leaders Summit is the industry's preeminent event in Europe and brings together the sector's most distinguished leaders, innovators, policy makers and thought leaders to explore the shifting landscape of global energy, and to map a critical pathway to future growth and sustainability.
