How Can We Make Net Zero Happen? 

Day 2 of the conference took aim at a key question: How can we make net zero happen? The energy transition is gaining momentum, and ensuring alignment across companies, energy stakeholders, and governments is critical to meeting ambitious climate and sustainability goals by 2050.

Today's Top Takes

With 10+ sessions today dedicated to climate, it was nearly impossible to avoid conversations on sustainability and surrounding influences. While in some ways a thoroughly discussed topic, the context surrounding sustainability remains dynamic and responsive to market signals and needs.

We learned more about accelerating actions toward sustainability such as leveraging policy like the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and improving energy access while combating climate change. By investing in a wide variety of solutions — and a diverse network of collaborators across industries, geographies, and generations — we can drive down the cost curve and scale the technologies that will help us achieve net zero.

Mitsubishi Power and MHI shared plans for a new carbon-capture partnership with Warwick Carbon Solutions and Kiewit Corporation. A joint FEED study among these partners will bring together cutting-edge gas turbines, proprietary carbon capture technology, and expertise in energy infrastructure to address how to decarbonize hard-to-abate industries.
