Peak power demand is projected to surge 26% by 2035, driven by the explosive growth of data centers and global electrification. Simultaneously, rising geopolitical tensions and fuel supply disruptions are exposing the fragility of today’s energy system - forcing energy security and affordability back to the top of the global agenda.

This is not incremental change; it is a system level transformation. Meeting demand in an era of heightened volatility will require a bold reimagining of the energy mix enabled through strategic investment and agile leadership to deliver reliable, affordable power at scale.

The parameters for a resilient energy mix are being set now. Deals are closing. Cross-sectoral partnerships are forming.

That’s why 600+ leaders will unite at Reuters Events: Global Energy Forum 2026 (June 23-24, NYC) - the exclusive meeting point for global decision makers, where action replaces talk, and the future of energy is secured.
