Carnegie says:
“Celebrating its one hundredth anniversary, I’m incredibly proud to be a part of the WEC’s leadership as it prepares for its next 100 years and its role as a change maker in the global energy transition. The WEC is poised to help move the energy world in a positive new direction.”
Energy Resources Aotearoa is committed to harnessing the power of constructive collaboration to address the world’s energy needs responsibly and sustainably.

The Congress, the flagship global energy event hosted by the World Energy Council, gathers global leaders, innovators, and stakeholders to discuss the future of energy and sustainable development.
Carnegie says:
“While the transition towards and beyond net carbon zero isn’t going to be easy, the lessons brought back to New Zealand from Congress will help Energy Resources Aotearoa close the gap between vision and action through pragmatic, practical advice.”
“I look forward to engaging with fellow global industry leaders, exchanging ideas, and exploring opportunities to advance our collective efforts towards a more sustainable energy landscape. “
