WBCSD: Energy System Transformation Breakfast

Location: Oakland Convention Center - Room 207

Date: Thursday, October 24, 7:30 AM

The energy sector is undergoing a fundamental transition driven by new technologies, new business models, the need to limit climate change, increase environmental protection, and security of supply concerns. How companies reduce energy consumption, how they source energy for their business and how they interact with their value chain will determine their ability to keep up with the pace and scale of transformations, ensure long-term sustainability and increase their competitive edge.  Join WBCSD at VERGE 19 for a conversation about integrated energy strategies to learn how to leverage opportunities from the energy system transformation while substantially contributing to the decarbonization of a company’s energy use across their energy-related value chain.
