Following the great success of the 2023 Energy transition workshop in Cape Town, the ICSC, in collaboration with Eskom are delighted to announce that the event will be returning to the same stunning venue – Cape Town on 24 – 25 April 2024.

The energy transition is raising issues thick and fast the world over. One of the most pressing is to identify the most practical routes to achieve net zero – this is the focus of the ICSC workshop and makes attendance at this international event more important than ever. The event will improve your understanding of the policies being pursued by various countries to achieve net zero, the technologies that are being developed and deployed, and how they interact.

The 3rd energy transition workshop is a fantastic opportunity to discuss the energy transition with experts from all over the world, and to gain insights into what strategies and technologies are likely to work and the ones that may be less successful.

Topics that will be discussed include:

• Developments in carbon capture, utilisation and storage
• Emissions reduction from power plants
• The role of variable renewable energy
• How to maintain a stable electricity grid during the transition
• How to improve the flexibility of power plants so they can cope with VRE
• The potential to reduce emissions from hard to abate industries
• The role of coal in a circular economy – for example as a viable source of rare earth elements, critical for the energy transition.
