Industrial Energy Procurement & Risk Management Summit
Master volatile energy markets with price certainty and supply security. The senior-level European forum on PPAs, gas contracting, hedging, and portfolio strategy for unpredictable markets.
Strategy, risk, and resilience for Europe's industrial energy buyers
The 6th Industrial Energy Procurement & Risk Management Summit convenes senior leaders from Europe's largest industrial energy buyers to confront the defining challenges of a volatile market environment.
Against the backdrop of rapidly evolving European energy markets, fluctuating gas and power prices, and ongoing regulatory and geopolitical pressure, the summit addresses the practical disciplines procurement teams need to deliver on: structuring procurement strategy under uncertainty, optimising long-term PPAs, balancing physical and virtual contracts, managing counterparty risk, and deploying digital tools to sharpen decision-making.
Through closed-door case studies, peer-to-peer working sessions and expert panels, delegates leave with actionable frameworks to secure budgets, safeguard supply, and align procurement decisions with the wider operational and sustainability agenda.
