The entire energy sector is undergoing dynamic change. Substantial momentum results not only from technological and scientific findings, but also from political decisions and election results. The 2020 Handelsblatt Energy Summit at the beginning of the year rounds up all the players in the energy industry, thus providing them with the perfect framework for determining the status quo of the sector and the energy transition. The chairmen of the management boards of RWE, Rolf Martin Schmitz, and Eon, Johannes Teyssen, will be attending, as will Friederike Otto, climate researcher at the University of Oxford.
