War & Energy

Due to the recent tragic events related to Russia’s attacks on energy infrastructure across the country, we will gather the country’s top energy experts, executives, and state officials to discuss the energy situation in the country. We will focus on everything from the level of destruction of the energy network, the outlook for electricity production, and ultimately how consumers, businesses, and the overall economy in Ukraine will manage the rest of this year and into 2025 (and beyond).
