Energy Transition Summit
Delivering Ireland’s energy revolution
On the 2023 Summit
Amidst the ongoing global energy transition, pivotal for mitigating climate change and ensuring accessible energy for all, significant progress has been made in recent years. However, the urgency of addressing climate concerns continues to escalate, with nations facing pressures across economic development and growth, environmental sustainability, and energy security and affordable access
Reflecting on the previous year’s efforts, the Energy Transition Summit 2023 served as a vital forum for discussions on climate action and its integration into strategic business decisions. Against the backdrop of Ireland’s Climate Action Plan 2023 and the imperative of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, the summit emphasized the critical need to translate intentions into concrete actions.
Designed for business leaders, policymakers, and investors, the summit explored how climate commitments translate into meaningful business strategies. Attendees participated in lively panel discussions, inspiring case studies, and engaging fireside chats led by industry experts and thought leaders.
As we look back on the summit’s impact, it’s clear that our collective focus must now shift towards accelerating our efforts to combat the climate crisis. The summit underscored the importance of placing climate solutions at the heart of our social and economic development. The time for action is now, as we strive to deliver on our commitments and drive transformative change towards a sustainable future.
