US Secretary of Energy to address CERAWeek by S&P Global

Secretary Granholm will join the world’s energy industry leaders, experts, government officials and policymakers, as well as leaders from the technology, financial and industrial communities addressing this year’s conference.

“We are pleased again to welcome Secretary Granholm to CERAWeek,” said Daniel Yergin, Conference Chair and Vice Chairman of S&P Global. “At a time of great turbulence in energy, her perspective will be an important and timely contribution to the critical dialogue about energy and policy. Her central role on the implementation and direction of major US legislation – such as the Inflation Reduction Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act – will be a source of great interest. Since delivering her inaugural energy address as US Secretary of Energy at CERAWeek 2021, her participation has been a significant contribution to CERAWeek and has great impact.”

CERAWeek 2023: Navigating a Turbulent World: Energy, Climate and Security will examine how a new era of global uncertainty and change is reshaping challenges and opportunities for the energy transition. The conference will explore strategies and solutions for reducing emissions while meeting growing energy demand – all as the world grapples with shifting geopolitics, economic uncertainty and the upheaval of war.

The CERAWeek 2023 conference programme will explore key themes related to:

• The energy trilemma: balancing security, transition and affordability.
• Geopolitics and geoeconomics: an era of volatility.
• Competitive landscape, technology and innovation.
• Financing the energy future: the capital transition.
• Supply chains, commodity markets and energy transition.
• Future workforce: diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) and next-generation skills.

The week-long event will also include the CERAWeek Innovation Agora, serving as the centre of technology and innovation programming at the conference. Featuring a community of thought leaders, technologists, start-ups, investors, academics, energy companies and government officials, the Innovation Agora will showcase transformational technology platforms in the energy space ranging from digitalisation, AI, cybersecurity, analytics and connectivity, robotics, blockchain, additive manufacturing, mobility, and decarbonisation technologies. The 2023 programme will also feature expanded “Agora Hubs” – dedicated areas focused on hydrogen, carbon management and climate.
