?? Insights from CERAWeek 2025 ?? Energy Dialogues CEO Monika Sim?es is at CERAWeek, where the buzz is undeniable! Kicking off the week, U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright shared key insights on the future of energy: ? Energy Disparity – A stark gap in global energy access remains. ? Re-industrialization – Strengthening U.S. manufacturing can reduce carbon-intensive imports. ? LNG & Nuclear – Lifting the LNG export pause and advancing nuclear tech signal a shift toward energy security. ? AI & Energy – The rapid rise of AI will drive massive electricity demand. An exciting moment for energy innovation and progress! Stay tuned for more insights from CERAWeek. ?? #CERAWeek #EnergyInnovation #EnergyDialogues

I always look forward to CERAWeek - it’s a week filled with insights, encounters and dialogue. One of the first things I heard this morning was “the buzz this year is special”. Chris Wright the new Secretary of Energy, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) laid out his perspective on the need for more energy: - Energy Disparity: The wealthiest nations in the world use 13 barrels of oil per person per year, while for 7 billion people the consumption averages 3 barrels, and Africa uses just 1 barrel per person. - Re-industrialization: China consumes 3x more energy for manufacturing. Outsourcing increases the carbon footprint of products, and reliance on diesel-powered shipping to get the products to market. The U.S. must pivot to common sense policies and reindustrialize. - Major Energy Developments: Lifting of the LNG export pause, and support for fission, fusion, and next-gen #geothermal signal a #nuclear renaissance and a push for secure, reliable, and affordable energy. - #AI & Energy: Intelligence production demands massive energy - the more energy, the more intelligence AI can generate. Rapid #electricity demand growth is ahead. - Secretary Wright emphasized how this is an exciting moment for human progress - if we unleash the human spirit through energy innovation. Great way to kick off the morning of day 1! #ceraweek #jointhedialogue #energypragmatism #energy #energyfuture
