Energy and Renewables SIG - New Year, New Energy?

2022 has been a turbulent year for the Energy industry as a whole, and it hasn't played out as expected for many participants. Within the risk management community, there has always been much focus on "horizon scanning" and "scenario planning", which usually covers a confusing multi-year timespan. With the beginning of the new year, the Energy & Renewables SIG is planning an online event titled "New Year, New Energy?" centred around near-term expectations and trend predictions for the Energy industry in 2023.  To filter out some of the noise of multi-year forecasts, we have invited three external speakers who present their (or their company's) view on the Energy industry in 2023.

Attendees will gain insights into near-term expectations and trend predictions for the Energy industry in 2023; our speakers will share their perspectives.  Each presentation includes a Q&A session to provide further clarifications.
