2025 President’s Award Recipient & International Energy Week Dinner Speaker: Secretary John Kerry

- "I’m honoured to receive this award, but it belongs equally to the innovators, entrepreneurs, engineers, and workers driving the clean energy transition. Embracing modern, abundant clean energy isn’t just the right thing to do - it’s smart economics and good business. Those who lead now will shape the rest of the 21st century."
