The Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia SIPA is hosting a series of energy and climate-focused events during Climate Week NYC from September 22-29, 2024. These events will bring together policymakers, industry leaders, scholars, and students to discuss innovative solutions, share research, and promote policies for a sustainable and equitable energy future. Topics include global renewable energy, geopolitical dynamics, critical minerals supply chains, financing, trade, and energy access. Be sure to see all our activities during the week.
CGEP is pleased to host the second annual Energy Opportunity Forum.
This forum is hosted by our Energy Opportunity Lab (EOL), which was launched at COP 27 in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt in 2022. EOL aims to catalyze opportunities for improved life chances through energy via actionable research, strategic convenings, community collaborations and equity-focused practical and policy solutions in order to eradicate energy insecurity in historically disadvantaged communities across the US and enable energy for development globally.
The second annual Energy Opportunity Forum will feature distinguished leaders from government, academia, industry, and civil society.
Join us again this year as we learn about private sector leadership in the African energy transition, energy for healthcare and livelihoods in refugee communities, and the role of utilities in advancing energy justice in the United States.
This event will be hosted in person in New York City and live-streamed via Zoom.
Advance registration is required. Upon registration, you will receive a confirmation email. The event will be recorded and the video recording will be added to our website following the event.
This event is open to press, and registration is required to attend. For media inquiries or requests for interviews, please contact [email protected].

President Donald Trump has made energy a clear focus for his second term in the White House. Having campaigned on an “America First” platform that highlighted domestic fossil-fuel growth, the reversal of climate policies and clean energy incentives advanced by the Biden administration, and substantial tariffs on key US trading partners, he declared an “energy emergency” on his first day in office.
