The Atlantic Council has made the difficult decision to postpone the 2022 Global Energy Forum to March 28 – 29. The Forum, which is part of Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week, will be held alongside Expo 2020 in Dubai in conjunction with the 2022 World Government Summit—a major global convening focused on the tools, policies, and models that are essential in shaping future governments—and will take advantage of the unparalleled opportunities at Expo during its closing week.

The Global Energy Forum will also convene several virtual programs this month during Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (which is still going ahead as planned) to complement ADSW’s critical mission of accelerating global climate action. These programs will include a high-level discussion on the outcomes from COP26 and the agendas for COP27 and COP28; the rollout of the Atlantic Council Global Energy Center’s annual flagship publication The Global Energy Agenda; a discussion on the various pathways to reaching net-zero; and a deep dive on the role of hydrogen in a net-zero energy system. Stay tuned for more information to come on this programming.
