In the dynamic landscape of the energy industry, embracing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles has become increasingly important. We will delve into the key drivers for ESG transparency and decarbonization, encompassing supply chain, financial markets, policy, and workforce. This presentation aims to equip the working group with a better understanding of the evolving ESG landscape in the context of the energy industry. We will start by demystifying ESG, shedding light on the core concepts and leading frameworks. We will explore the multifaceted drivers propelling the adoption of ESG across industries, including:
