Attendees from around the world were online watching the Edison Electric Institute's 6th Annual Global Electrification Forum, held the last week in April. Transitioning to a Sustainable World: Bridges, Opportunities, Barriers, Risks, was the theme of the gathering that lasted a full week.
What a week it was. Too many leaders engaged in conversations that matter to capture in these pages, but the PUF team brings you here, a look at many of the experts engaged in balancing climate change, energy security, affordability, and resiliency, just some of the issues, as our world appears to be getting smaller.
This virtual Global Electrification Forum is the annual flagship event of EEI's International Programs, its importance evidenced based on the who's who of speakers. Enjoy these excerpts.
