Dii Desert Energy

📢 World Utilities Congress is next week! Dii Desert Energy is proud to be supporting the event in Abu Dhabi. 📢 🗣Our CEO, Cornelius Matthes, will be speaking in the session 'The industry dialogue session: Driving ESG transformation with innovation, transparency, and accountability' from 11:15-11:45 on Day 3 - 18 September alongside Robin Mills, Qamar Energy, Salih Merghani, Olayan Financing Company and Semih Ozkan, J.P. Morgan ❓ ESG reporting continues to be at the top of the executive agenda. In the coming years, the evolution of ESG initiatives will transcend compliance, and pivot towards entrepreneurial sustainability. Transformative trends of circular business models, climate solutions, and social justice will play a central role in business decisions, particularly in the power, water, gas, and district cooling industries. It remains to be seen how businesses will leverage these trends beyond corporate compliance and drive real impact and change.
