Energy Institute Nigeria, in partnership with the United Kingdom (UK) Department for International Trade (UK DIT) is set to hold this year’s edition of its annual Energy Sustainability Conference.

The conference, scheduled to hold this week presents a suitable platform for all stakeholders within the energy industry to discuss, share ideas, and make valuable recommendations that will enhance further growth and development of the sector.

With the theme “Energy Landscape: Minimizing Risks and Maximizing Opportunities”, the 2-day conference seeks to enable knowledge transfer, foster relations, and sharpen skills of participants through specialist hubs, breakfast sessions and various industry specific panel sessions.

Speaking about the conference, the Chairman of Energy Institute Nigeria Mr. Osten Olorunsola,  said  “The dual challenge of meeting the demand and the supply side of energy on one hand, as well as being environmentally responsible and sustainable on the other hand, simply means that industry practitioners have to devise a means of pulling in two opposite directions at the same time”.
