The talks will be online. For this event we will use the new EAGE community platform. More details on the Online Event Page and via e-mails to registered participants.

The Path to Zero CO2 Emissions – the Challenge and Opportunity

The world has a viable path to building a global energy sector with net-zero emissions by 2050, and this requires an unprecedented transformation of how energy is produced, stored and used globally. There are multiple and concurrent paths to drive towards net-zero. Companies and government agencies globally are working very hard on this pathway to energy transition. During this 1-day eMeeting, hear from companies and government agencies around the world with their insight and challenge (or opportunity) on this journey to Net-Zero.

This event will be hosted by the EAGE Local Chapter Houston and EAGE Local Chapter London. Time of the talks in the agenda below is provided for both Houston and the UK time zones (UK time is in the brackets).
