New reality for the energy and natural resources sector post the coronavirus pandemic

About the event

The energy sector is staring at a new reality as the impact of the coronavirus continues to play out. Energy transition is drawing increased attention as business and consumer behaviour evolve. Economic growth has slowed with some countries entering a recession, and India is no different. Yet it remains a key pillar for commodity demand. For companies in India’s energy and natural resources sector - what are sustainable strategies for the future? How will India’s energy mix evolve?
