Join us for the presentation of the Global Electricity Review 2023, an insightful report drafted by independent think tank Ember Climate. We'll discuss what the future of global electricity looks like, and what are the challenges that still need to be addressed, including the slow pace of clean energy adoption in developing nations, the need to phase out coal, and the role of policy and investment in driving the energy transition.

Whether you're a seasoned professional or just someone interested in the energy industry, this event will be the perfect opportunity to gain an understanding of the future of global electricity while connecting with other like-minded individuals and a broad community of social innovators.
