Rebalancing energy: Trade-offs and transformations
On the road to World Energy Congress 2027 Riyadh
30 November to 1 December (World Energy Leaders’ Dialogue) + 2 December (exclusively for members)
The challenge is no longer simply how we transform energy systems, but how we evolve the leadership needed for the next century of energy.
Energy leaders are operating in a profoundly shifting and turbulent terrain. Long-held global commitments are being challenged, requiring leaders to rebalance priorities and rethink transformational opportunities. This moment calls for open and honest dialogue, for practical understanding, and for collective stewardship of more resilient and abundant, people-centred energy futures.
The World Energy Leaders’ Dialogue is designed to respond to this moment by convening leaders from across the increasingly fragmented landscape, spanning government, business, finance, technology and civil society. Under the theme Rebalancing energy: Trade-offs and transformations, the Dialogue will explore the energy leadership choices that really matter, and enhance individual and collective leadership understanding.
Hear from a distinguished line-up of global energy leaders, including:
- Angela Wilkinson, Secretary General and CEO, World Energy Council
- Adnan Amin, Chair, World Energy Council
- Fahad Alajlan, President, KAPSARC, and Chair, Middle East and Gulf States, World Energy Council
- Jean-Bernard Lévy, President, Conseil Français de l’Énergie
What to expect
- Candid CEO-level dialogue on the strategic choices shaping the next century of energy
- Collective intelligence harnessing the deeply local and globally connected perspectives from across the World Energy Council community
- Inclusive and intergenerational leadership, fostering dialogue across generations, genders, sectors and regions
