The 2025 Georgia Tech Energy Conference will explore the intersection between energy and geopolitics, discussing the ways in which energy shapes how countries interact.
Energy is at the root of almost everything we do, and it only makes sense that such a vital resource plays a central role in international politics. Whether it is the weaponization of the power grid during Russia’s war in Ukraine or the challenge of cooperating on climate goals, energy is at the core of the geopolitical landscape. Come to the Energy Conference to learn about these and other pressing topics from leaders from around the country.
