The World Energy Council has collaborated with EY on the topic of innovation in energy and their platinum sponsorship of the 24th World Energy Congress, to be held from 9-12 September 2019 in Abu Dhabi
EY will play an integral role by offering insight and thought leadership on the issues faced by the industry - helping delegates anticipate market trends, identify implications and opportunities and apply innovative thinking and the latest technology.
EY has been a long-standing supporter of the World Energy Council and a valued member of the Council’s international network. In 2012, EY became a Global Supporter, joining a select group of leading organisations who work closely with the Council to help achieve its mission to promote the sustainable supply and use of energy, for the greatest benefit of all.
This year, EY is strengthening its relationship with the World Energy Council by collaborating on the topic of innovation in energy.
Christoph Frei, secretary-general and CEO, World Energy Council, said, “The spirit of this collaboration is to promote innovation in the context of the energy transition, leveraging EY’s deep industry and business expertise and the Council’s extensive global network and neutral positioning for thought leadership. The Council and EY will work together to shape actionable insights that will inform energy leaders about how innovation and emerging technologies contribute to the transformation of the energy sector.”
Benoit Laclau, EY global energy leader, commented, “EY is delighted to sponsor the 24th World Energy Congress and collaborate with the Council to promote and support innovation. The energy system of the future will be vastly different from that of today, so it is imperative that the energy industry embraces innovation and explores new technologies.”
EY will also host a pavilion in the exhibition space, where EY senior leaders and subject matter experts will host live talks on major thought leadership topics, as well as showcase solutions designed to enable energy companies to succeed and thrive in this new energy world.
