International Energy Week 2025
Navigating the world’s energy transitions
We live in an energy hungry world. Energy consumption overall, fossil fuel use and associated greenhouse gas emissions are all rising. So too is the amount of power generated from clean energy, in particular wind and solar, but barely enough to meet growing demand, and the Paris Agreement is still out of reach.
But this global picture masks diverse energy and emission journeys. From advanced economies, where renewables are growing fast and fossil fuel demand is peaking, to the Global South, where growing populations and living standards will continue to drive fossil fuel demand. Energy transition is accelerating in sectors like light passenger transport and heating, where low-carbon electric vehicles and heat pumps are playing an increasingly competitive role. Transition is slower where emissions are harder to abate, such as aviation and shipping, iron and steel, and process industries where carbon intensity is stubbornly high.
And yet ultimately there is one interconnected global energy system, one net zero, and one shared planet.
International Energy Week 2025 bridges these transitions, with a programme identifying the commonalities and contrasts, the opportunities and challenges in accelerating change across geographies and sectors.
Convened by the Energy Institute’s sector experts and informed by the EI Statistical Review of World Energy, this is the global energy sector’s first major meeting of the year. And it takes place for the first time in its new, prestigious home, the QEII Centre in the heart of London.
Building on the renowned legacy of IP Week, the conference brings together senior figures from across the energy industry, investors, government, academia and NGOs. It’s where the latest strategic thinking, intelligence, and opportunities are shared, and collaboration happens. From policy and regulation to finance and governance, from energy efficiency and shifting demand, to capability, people and skills.
Over three days of high-profile keynotes, panel discussions, and networking, and culminating in the prestigious International Energy Week dinner and awards ceremony, the week attracts more than 1,000 delegates from around the globe.
It is the essential annual fixture for those leading on corporate strategy, business development, and technological innovation, those wanting to retain a competitive edge, and anyone seeking insight into the great energy challenges facing humanity and once-in-a-generation energy transition opportunities.
Bookings will be opening shortly.

Transitioning out of crisis
Here's what people said about International Energy Week:
'There's no world we can live in where energy poverty can remain but we hit our climate goals. That's why gatherings like this are really important to have everybody in the room working to a solution. People just want power; they just want to live a dignified life - and you cannot live a dignified life without energy.'
'International Energy Week is really important because it's a place where you can bring that environmental imperative and the security agenda together and think about it in a holistic way.'
'This is one of the flagship events of the year in the energy sector, bringing together everyone from the power sector right through to oil and gas, and all the other new innovations coming through in the energy sectors.'
'Ground breaking line up...great to see both sides of the energy transition debate in the room together.'
Winners of the 2024 International Energy Awards
The Energy Institute exists to create a better energy future. In its 25th year, these prestigious awards recognise the best the sector has to offer, and for the first time were presented at the International Energy Week Dinner on 29 February 2024 at The Grosvenor House Hotel in London. This year’s outstanding winners are profiled below.
Global visions: International Energy Week debates the key factors impacting the energy transition
With more than 30 sessions on energy scenarios, energy finance, making a just transition, technological innovation and electrification, International Energy Week 2024 covered lots of ground. One session in particular encompassed the widest possible scope, addressing the global energy situation and outlook. New Energy World Senior Editor Will Dalrymple reports.
People power for a still-transitioning sector
People are the fuel to power a transitioning energy sector and diversity will produce the blend needed to accelerate this change. This was the theme of a few sessions at International Energy Week 2024, reports Nick Cottam.
Leaders of the transition
To understand what makes International Energy Week so compelling, look no further than some of the key speakers on Day One of the 2024 event in late February. New Energy World Features Editor Brian Davis highlights some of the thought-provoking issues expressed.
Why we won’t deliver the energy transition without women leading the way
Following International Energy Week and ahead of International Women’s Day, Nick Wayth CEng FEI, CEO of the Energy Institute and POWERful Women board member, explains why women will be instrumental in leading the energy sector on the road to net zero.
The efficiency of power
At International Energy Week, Energy Institute President Juliet Davenport OBE HonFEI emphasised the importance of electrification to the global task of decarbonisation, as she introduced a conference session on electricity generation and the electrical grid.
Can International Energy Week provide a bridge between polarised energy debates?
In advance of the London-based conference, John MacArthur FREng CEng FEI, Chair of the International Energy Week Board, previews this year’s varied programme.
