The conflict in Iran has sent oil prices surging, supply chains scrambling, and strategic planners back to the drawing board. But it has also illuminated something deeper: the mounting strategic and economic cost of the United States' reliance on fossil fuels and a new opening for change.
Join Ceres for a candid conversation with national security veterans, clean energy leaders, and institutional investors on what this moment reveals and what it demands. From Pentagon energy resilience doctrine to corporate clean energy procurement and capital allocation, we'll explore why a diversified U.S. energy base isn't just an environmental imperative but also a security and financial one.
During this webinar, participants will:
Understand how the Iran conflict has exposed the strategic and economic costs of fossil fuel dependence, including oil price volatility, supply chain fragility, and the geopolitcal risk to U.S. foreign policy.
Assess the near- and medium-term outlook for U.S. energy markets and the clean energy transition
Identify concrete steps companies can take now to reduce vulnerability from fossil fuel reliance: from clean energy procurement to supply chain diversification — and why this is both a risk management and competitive imperative.
Understand how institutional investors are assessing capital allocation in response to geopolitical energy risk, and what a shift toward a more diversified U.S. energy base means for portfolio strategy and corporate engagement.
