About the Event

The journey toward net-zero is already transforming industries, economies, and geopolitics globally. In line with the European Green Deal initiated in 2019, the EU has introduced key measures such as “Fit for 55” (2021), RePowerEU (2022), the Green Deal Industrial Plan (2023), and the Net Zero Industry Act (2024) to drive this transformation. 

Five years later, how are we progressing? This event will critically evaluate the technological advancements and strategies being employed to meet the ambitious goals of the Green Deal — highlighting near-term opportunities on the way to comprehensive transformation. We will also present Lux’s net-zero frameworks specifically designed for the oil & gas and utility sectors, illustrating how these industries can effectively balance tradeoffs between long-range goals and the need for quick commercial wins during the energy transition. 

Attendees will gain: 

  • A comprehensive understanding of the current trajectory of the energy transition in Europe. 
  • Insight into the key technologies and strategies required to meet net-zero targets. 
  • Practical guidance on using Lux’s frameworks to balance incremental advances with transformative change. 
  • Identification of new opportunities within the evolving energy landscape. 
 

Join us to explore how your organization can strategically adapt and lead in decarbonizing the energy system.

A Reality Check on the Energy Transition

Achieving carbon-neutrality will require novel and emerging technologies such as hydrogen, carbon capture, long-duration energy storage systems, and advanced energy management tools. The EU’s net-zero roadmap heavily depends on the successful scale-up and deployment of these technologies.

This presentation provides an insightful reality check on the development of these crucial technologies. We will highlight the challenges and pain points encountered so far as well as the innovation opportunities that can accelerate their deployment. Attendees will learn how to identify actions to take today to drive results while driving the energy transition forward.

Navigating the Transition: The Lux Energy Transition Framework for Oil & Gas and Utilities

The transition to net-zero is driving a profound transformation in the energy sector. The oil & gas industry, historically the world’s primary energy source, is witnessing its dominance wane, while the electric utility industry faces surging demand due to the electrification of mobility and industry. Both industries need to refine their strategies to navigate this transition — however, prioritizing the right technologies for the near, medium, and long term amid these changes remains a significant challenge.

In this presentation, Lux Research will introduce the Lux Energy Transition Framework, specifically designed for oil & gas and utilities. This framework will guide companies in making the crucial decisions necessary to thrive in the net-zero transition, providing a strategic roadmap to navigate the evolving energy landscape.
