The 16th edition of the World Future Energy Summit 2024 is set to take place in Abu Dhabi in April.
Hosted by Masdar, the Summit will be held at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) from April 16-18, 2024, bringing together industry leaders, policymakers, investment incubators, corporate partners, and startups.
Together, participants at World Future Energy Summit 2024 will explore ways to unlock investment and find innovative instruments to close the climate finance gap, increase private sector engagement with regulators and governments, integrate carbon into decision-making and asset valuation, and increase adaptation and resilience financing.
The goal of tripling renewable power generation capacity to 11,000 GW will also be in the spotlight, as well as doubling energy efficiency this decade, reaching near zero-methane emissions by 2030, and cutting the share of fossil fuels.
“COP28 initiated dramatic new frameworks which governments and the private sector must work towards to help realise pledges made across climate change, climate finance, sustainability, food security, and emissions reduction,” commented Leen Alsebai, General Manager of RX Middle East and Head of the World Future Energy Summit.
“The event will be a catalyst to further COP28 resolutions along the road to reality,” Alsebai added.
“We envisage the event producing an unprecedented catalogue of partnerships, agreements, technological innovations, and new collaborative pathways to transition the collective COP28 accords into action. The energy industry is now in the vanguard of championing a sustainable planet for today and future generations. The knowledge and collaboration that the Summit will engender will be powerful currencies to propel the world forward in unprecedented ways for a cleaner, greener tomorrow,” Alsebai said.
