With the theme “Navigating the new energy world order: Security, Transition, and Finance,” the summit aims to address the complex challenges and opportunities facing the global energy sector. Backed by the Federal Government of Nigeria, NIES 2024 will gather thought leaders, policymakers, industry experts and financial stakeholders to discuss three critical pillars: Security, Transition and Finance.
