Conference overview
This edition will address emerging security challenges and opportunities resulting from global efforts to lower CO2 emissions by reducing consumption of high-carbon energy sources, it will focus on the impact of climate change on the global energy system considering both mitigation and adaptation actions and their possible impacts on the transition roadmap toward a decarbonisation system.

There is a strong link between energy policy and national security and the forthcoming dangers of climate change focused the attention on the international and national dimensions of the future of energy-security nexus.
Various interest groups, intergovernmental organizations, industry leaders, and security experts debate on energy security and although there is a wide consensus regarding the need to a net zero emission society, the points of view regarding the path of this transition are not always the same.

A boosting development of renewable energy sources is necessary to contrast the climate change, that together with the actions to accelerate the improvements in energy efficiency are two fundamental pillars of a win-win strategy to reduce energy bills, dependence on imported fuels and speed up reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time this will support the economy and the industrial sectors, with the creation of new job opportunities and a national industrial supply chain.
However, there are also many critical challenges, including the energy crisis, inflationary pressures, availability of some critical raw materials.

Our event will be an opportunity to discuss all these issues, it will bring together prominent academic voices as well as experienced practitioners and policymakers, offering an opportunity to “bridge the gap” between these sectors. Participants in the conference will identify critical issues and challenge competing perspectives, will explore new and existing trends, creative solutions of new technologies, the emergence of new market conditions and of new market operators.
