CEO Message
As you can perhaps tell from my own personal passion for, and excitement in, podcasting, and my genuine thrill at having such insightful and detailed conversations with some of the world’s top energy, policy, and thought leaders, EIC’s fastest growing promotional platform in 2025 was indeed audio podcasting, and so we are super excited to now be launching video podcasting as a further option to help EIC cement its position as the world’s voice of the energy supply chain. Stuart Broadley, EIC CEO

EVENT HIGHLIGHTS Bankable Energies 2026 wrapped up in London after a full day of in-depth discussions focused on improving bankability and accelerating the transition of energy projects from design to delivery. A key takeaway from the conference was that bankability extends beyond simply securing financing. It depends on long-term visibility, effective risk allocation, and the ability to sustain momentum from concept through to grid
connection. Expert speakers included Sizewell C, Equinor, CIP Terra Technologies, Lloyd’s Register, Worley, EET, KPMG, DESNZ, HSBC, and more. We look forward to welcoming you to Bankable Energies 2027 in March next year. On Monday 16 March, senior leaders from over 20 member organisations gathered in London to discuss the de industrialisation of the UK. This marked the first meeting of the Directorate of the Energy Supply Chain (DESC) Committee, established to guide and strengthen our policy and advocacy efforts on behalf of our members.
