It is a sign of the times that Houston, Texas – a city dubbed the energy capital of the world due to its oil and gas predominance – now employs over 55,000 workers in the clean energy sector and ranks first in the nation for wind energy capacity. Indeed, the city now plays host to the full spectrum of energy and industrial leaders, with new cross-industry partnerships and collaborations forming to drive the transition towards a decarbonized economy.
In November, to celebrate this legacy and forge a sustainable future, Reuters Events will bring its flagship meeting for the energy community, Reuters Events: Energy Transition North America 2022, to Houston for two days of direction-setting insights, breaking news and partnership building. Upon the backdrop of the COP27 climate conference, key industry changemakers will strategize pathways to providing a secure, clean and affordable power supply across the United States and Canada.
