2026 New Energy and Carbon Market Business Strategic Forum Focusing on Carbon Costs, Electricity Risks, and Corporate Competitiveness
The global energy transition is rapidly reshaping the business environment. As carbon pricing, the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), sustainability disclosure requirements, electricity market reforms, and green finance continue to evolve, businesses are facing far more than ESG compliance. These developments are fundamentally transforming corporate cost structures, energy resilience, and the way capital markets evaluate business performance.
Co-organized by EnergyOMNI and RECCESSARY, the "2026 New Energy and Carbon Market Business Strategic Forum" will bring together policymakers, multinational corporations, energy industry leaders, financial institutions, and technology experts under the central theme of "Carbon Costs, Electricity Risks, and Capital Screening."
