According to the data from the 17th edition of the Global Peace Index, the world continues to become less peaceful. Even though some countries choose to spend less on militarization, the absolute level of military expenditure continues to grow.

Amidst rising political tensions, the world still faces the challenges of advancing low-carbon technologies while ensuring energy security. What is the state and the future of energy transition in this complicated web of instability and insecurity?

Key discussion points: 

  • How has Russia's war in Ukraine impacted global energy transitions and security?
  • What are the implications of geopolitical tensions on efforts to combat climate change and promote low-carbon technologies?
  • Can international collaboration mitigate the challenges posed by the intersection of conflict and energy transitions?
  • How might the roles of major players like the United States, China, and India evolve in shaping the future energy landscape?
  • What strategies should governments and stakeholders adopt to navigate the complexities of energy security amidst geopolitical uncertainties and climate imperatives?
