Three day event brought participants from across multiple sectors
Siemens Energy recently concluded a three-day virtual conference, entitled ‘Qatar Energy Days’, which brought together participants from across government, energy and industrial sectors, focusing on the technologies to meet and surpass energy-related goals under Qatar’s Vision 2030.
The event highlighted Qatar’s role in advancing the energy transition globally, its potential for creating a domestic hydrogen economy, as well as the evolving global energy trends.
The virtual conference, which took place in mid-February, was attended more than 350 participants and brought together a wide variety of perspectives from local experts in generation, transmission, and industrial applications, as well as government officials, in order to help shape the energy of tomorrow.
Qatar’s government is making it a priority to find harmony between economic growth and protecting the environment in order to mitigate the effects of pollution and global warming.
“Qatar has already adopted initiatives to protect the environment and reduce carbon emissions, but its energy transformation is still in the early stages. We hope that discussions like the ones we had will help accelerate the energy transformation in Qatar,” remarked Herbert Klausner, Managing Director, Siemens Energy, Qatar.
“Qatar has the ability to leverage its existing expertise and technologies as a leader in the LNG industry to drive its transformation into cleaner energy,” commented Vinod Philip, EVP Chief Technology and Strategy Officer, Siemens Energy.
