Building a diversified energy mix to meet rising energy demand

According to the Energy Institute’s Statistical Review of World Energy, traditional fuels continue to meet more than 80% of the world's energy needs despite record growth in renewable energy. Building a resilient, diversified clean energy supply necessitates expanding production and sourcing capabilities across multiple countries and regions to minimise reliance on any single source. Economies built on production are seizing the chance to rethink their infrastructure, resources and skills. Their focus is shifting to create clean energy supply chains, driven by low-carbon solutions such as LNG and other new energy sources. This change brings huge advantages: stronger economies, new jobs, and fresh market opportunities.

 Attendee insights:

This session will explore the crucial role of a diversified energy mix in the broader energy transition while ensuring a sustainable supply to meet the increasing energy demand.
