About Us
We are the premier hub and policy institution for global energy thought leadership. Energy impacts every element of our lives, and our trusted fact-based research informs the decisions that affect all of us.
Geopolitical upheaval, combined with an energy affordability crisis, is straining the ability of global markets to meet basic energy needs around the world at a time when the transition toward clean energy sources must accelerate. As winter approaches in the Northern Hemisphere, policymakers are struggling to secure an affordable, reliable energy supply for their countries. At the same time, the consequences of unrestrained fossil fuel usage are coming into sharper focus, as humanitarian and economic costs mount from rising sea levels, heatwaves, wildfires, coastal inundation, and droughts. Despite recent hard-won progress, the world still remains off track from meeting global climate goals. It is therefore vital that the response to the current energy crisis also supports progress towards net zero, and in a way that does not reinforce historical inequalities surrounding energy access.
As the tensions between meeting current energy needs and accelerating climate action escalate, policymakers face a series of difficult choices. How can they ensure energy security and affordability without compromising the energy transition? And how can the energy transition address the historic inequities interwoven into the global energy system?
Join Columbia University’s Center on Global Energy Policy at COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt for a discussion with key stakeholders working to accelerate a just energy transition, as they explore the risks and opportunities of this moment. The panel will focus not only on how global events will shape this future opportunity, but also how the transition can rebalance an historically unjust relationship by enabling the Global South to become a key participant and anchor of a shared green energy future.
