Paris Energy Week
Ten years after clean energy was integrated into the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the decarbonisation of the energy sector stands at a crossroads.
While the rollout of renewable energy is gaining momentum worldwide, geopolitical shifts, resource constraints, and industrial challenges are reshaping the pathway toward sustainable, secure, and affordable energy.
In this context, Paris Energy Week will bring together leading voices from academia, politics, and industry for a week of conferences, workshops, and a student hackathon focused on the challenges and opportunities of the energy transition.
