​Delivering on Europe’s Energy Transition: Collaborating to Scale Speed, Resilience, and Affordability

​Europe is approaching a decisive phase in the energy transition.

​Electrification, grid constraints, energy security, and industrial competitiveness are now colliding simultaneously. The need for affordable low-carbon electricity in industry is set to rise materially, but grid and infrastructure deployment are not yet keeping pace.

​The question now is how to meet Europe’s ambition, and align capital, innovation, infrastructure, and industrial demand quickly enough to deliver. For industry leaders, innovators, and investors, this creates a shared near-term agenda: de-risk deployment, accelerate scalable solutions, and build the partnerships needed to close the gap between strategy and execution. This session will examine what those partnerships could look like in practice.

​As Europe confronts the triple challenge of energy affordability, industrial competitiveness and innovation, and decarbonization, what forms of collaboration are needed to deliver the energy transition?
