Supporting the energy transition, accelerating electrical flexibility, leveraging GenAI: new Challenges for the sector

In the past 40 years, global primary energy consumption has more than doubled and is expected to grow by nearly 50% between 2019 and 2050. These estimates are constantly evolving, as is the global geopolitical landscape, with consequential impacts on raw materials, energy sources, and even the energy policies of nations.

However, there is no doubt that a series of forces is profoundly transforming the energy market along its supply chain. On one hand, geopolitical uncertainties and turbulence are affecting energy sources and raw materials; on the other, climate change is having disruptive effects on societies as well as on productive activities.
