Energy Transition Summit

2026 agenda now live. Download the PDF here →

Powering a world under pressure

A major global energy shock has brought security back up the global agenda. While some double down on fossil fuels, investment in secure, clean, and domestically produced power is accelerating. Electricity demand is rising — driven by rapid electrification and the growing energy needs of AI — yet a structural shift away from fossil fuels is firmly underway.

To examine how energy systems are evolving against this backdrop, FT Live is convening its 11th Energy Transition Summit.

Designed specifically for senior business decision-makers, suppliers, and customers, this two-day summit will explore:

• Structural realities: The forces shaping global supply and demand.
• Capital allocation: Where infrastructure investment is moving next.
• The trilemma: Solutions to balancing rising power demands with urgent climate and resource concerns.

Geopolitics, Supply Shocks and Energy Security

How is the drive to secure energy supply amid disruption changing global markets?

How are energy systems being hardened against exposure?

Trade and Supply Chains

How should governments and investors manage structural dependence risks without raising costs or slowing the deployment of clean energy sources?  

Grid Constraint and System Governance

How are grid constraints limiting decarbonisation? Who governs the reform of grid systems?

What models are helping de-risk investment?

Energy Addition and Demand-side Flexibility

Is the ‘energy transition’ becoming an expansion rather than a substitution? What does credible decarbonisation look like amid structural demand growth?

Power in the AI Era

What will deliver constant, reliable capacity for AI’s "round-the-clock power" needs? Is natural gas a short-term bridge?

Risk, Resilience and Affordability

What energy sources are delivering access, affordability and autonomy? Who carries risk - developers, consumers, taxpayers or the state?
