România are în următorii ani o oportunitate unică pentru modernizarea sectorului energetic local, finanţări europene de peste 10 mld. euro putând fi injectate în acest domeniu strategic. După 30 de ani de lipsă de investiţii, care au transformat România în importator net de energie şi au generat o criză fără precedent a forţei de muncă înalt specializată, atragerea acestor bani şi punerea lor la lucru este aproape o obligaţie. Va reuşi România să o îndeplinească?
Dan Dragoş Drăgan, secretar de stat în Ministerul Energiei, Elena Popescu, membru al comitetului de investiţii pentru România în cadrul Fondului de Modenizare, Lăcrămioara Diaconu-Pinţea, membru în directoratul CE Oltenia, Corneliu Bodea, preşedintele Centrului Român al Energiei, sau Mihai Drăghici, director în cadrul EY, vin la ZF Power Summit 2022 pentru a discuta cum poate profita România de şansa imensă de investiţii pe care o are în următorul deceniu.
ZF Power Summit, cel mai important eveniment al platformei de informaţii ZF, ajunge anul acesta la cea de-a 11-a ediţie, complexitatea contextului în care se desfăşoară dezbaterile determinându-ne, pentru prima dată, să extindem durata evenimentului la 3 zile de dialog, în perioada 22-24 februarie.
Lansat în 2012, ZF Power Summit s-a transformat într-una dintre cele mai credibile platforme de discuţii dedicată în exclusivitate industriei energetice, reuşind an de an să adune în jurul temelor propuse elita sectorului care ţine o întreagă economie în mişcare.
Anul acesta, mai mult ca niciodată, evenimentul se va concentra, alături de invitaţii săi, să identifice direcţiile necesare astfel încât oportunităţile aduse de tranziţia energetică să devină instrumente pentru relansarea unui sector aflat acum în tensiune maximă.
Cu o structură hibrid, cu paneluri care vor aduce laolaltă perspectiva specialiştilor internaţionali, a autorităţilor europene şi locale şi a liderilor români şi regionali, ZF Power Summit 2022 are misiunea de a răspunde unei întrebări cheie: deceniul care va schimba energia în România începe acum. Care sunt direcţiile care pot relansa un sector strategic?
