The Columbia Global Energy Summit 2024, hosted by the Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University SIPA, is an annual event dedicated to thought-provoking discussions around the critical energy and climate challenges facing the global community.
This year’s day-long Summit will address myriad issues at the heart of today’s complex geopolitical, environmental and economic landscape, including the impact of climate change and the energy transition on geopolitics and security; the outlook for clean energy deployment in the face of growing policy support, as well as challenges such as interest rates, permitting reform and trade conflict; pathways to mobilize finance for clean energy in emerging and developing economies; energy justice imperatives; and the impact for energy and climate policy in key elections around the world in 2024.
The Summit will also be livestreamed and virtually accessible to all. In addition to the formal program, the Summit also offers opportunities for participants and attendees to network and develop partnerships and relationships.
Driving the Dialogue on Critical Conversations facing the Global Energy Community
Past Summit programs have highlighted timely and impactful issues, and every year the Summit focuses on the most pressing issues facing the global energy community. In past years this has included the geopolitics of energy transition, financing the energy transition, mobilizing climate action, and the realities of today’s energy needs in emerging economies. Experts at the 2024 Summit will discuss critical topics of-the-day, such as the impact of climate on peace and security, achieving sustainable and equitable growth in the critical minerals supply chain and global marketplace, addressing energy inequality in the United States, and much more.
