Energy & Sustainability

The Covid Pandemic, a series of critical environmental issues and extreme weather events have reminded humanity of its vulnerability, and that awareness is further accelerating the pace of technological transformation and has heightened the focus on sustainability.

The agreements reached at the Glasgow COP26 Conference in November 2021 will spur major and lasting change for the energy sector. The financial commitments to invest in new low carbon technologies and the unilateral agreement to ‘phase-down’ (albeit not phase-out) coal power and other fossil fuels will accelerate root and branch revolution for the global energy majors, and increase the already vast number of clean technology start-ups – over 2,500 of these businesses were registered in the US alone by 2020. Added to that, the largest companies and countries on the planet have a genuine incentive to invest in becoming carbon neutral, meaning the Energy & Sustainability agenda will be the dominant global theme for economies for the foreseeable future.
