Bureau Veritas' Energy Transition Report Sneak Peek: Dawn Robertson
from EIC Podcasts
In this episode.As governments, investors and energy companies navigate an increasingly uncertain world, energy security and sovereignty are emerging as defining priorities for the future of the global energy system. In this episode of Inside Energy, Stuart Broadley is joined by Dawn Robertson, Director of Global Oil & Gas CapEx and Decommissioning at Bureau Veritas, to discuss the findings of Bureau Veritas’ latest Energy Transition Report, which captures the views of more than 800 energy leaders worldwide. The conversation explores how shifting geopolitical realities are influencing investment decisions across oil and gas, renewables and emerging technologies. Stuart and Dawn examine the growing recognition that future energy systems will require a balanced energy mix, the continued growth of global oil and gas investment, the pace of renewable deployment, and the critical role of grid infrastructure in supporting rising electricity demand. They also discuss the rapid rise of AI across the energy sector, its potential to improve efficiency and optimise infrastructure, the challenges posed by growing data centre demand, and the talent and skills shortages facing the industry. At the heart of the discussion is a key question: how can countries strengthen energy security, accelerate investment and build a resilient energy system while meeting growing demand and maintaining competitiveness?What Is the EIC?
