The signing of the Paris Agreement ten years ago marked a turning point in global climate action. Many actors, including the energy sector, have made significant efforts to move away from fossil fuels and speed up the roll-out of renewable solutions. And yet, as evidenced in COP28’s Global Stocktake, a considerable emission gap keeps our world away from containing global warming to 1.5ºC. To bridge the gap, parties committed to tripling renewable energy capacity and double energy efficiency improvements by 2030. Commitments which must be reflected in the new round of NDCs presented by parties now. 

Objectives

Assess global progress since the Paris Agreement, identifying key gaps revealed by the Global Stocktake and evaluating the urgency of integrating new commitments, such as tripling renewable capacity and doubling energy efficiency into upcoming NDCs.

Examine the evolving role of the energy sector in achieving the 1.5ºC target, analysing investment trends, corporate behaviour, and the growing risks of backtracking and greenwashing.

Explore strategies to align corporate climate action with long-term competitiveness, addressing how companies can maintain ambition and credibility amid shifting geopolitical and policy environments.

Foster dialogue on restoring trust and accountability within the global energy transition, highlighting the importance of transparent commitments and a just, secure, and inclusive pathway toward decarbonisation.
