Join our keynote interview with Mr. Ralph Izzo.

The global oil industry is facing an uncertain future: after 125 year of nearly continuous growth, demand for oil looks set to peak in the coming decade as the world moves to address climate change. Rather than fight the inevitable, oil companies should lean into the transition, and opt either to wind down or to leverage their assets to transition into a new kind of energy company.

The global energy transition community named Colombia its pioneer in Latin America. Leveraging abundant natural resources, the country introduced renewable energy auctions in 2019 which enabled the government to launch dozens of renewable energy projects across the country. In the interview with Davos Energy Week Minister Mesa, the mastermind behind his country’s energy transformation programs, will reveal his Ministry’s further plans and steps in that regard.
