Your Excellency,
We are delighted to extend a personal invitation for you to join us at the private Ministerial Roundtable of
the World Energy Congress on the morning of Wednesday 24 April 2024, co-hosted by the World Energy
Council and the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy of the Government of the Netherlands. This

under the theme of Redesigning Energy for People and Pianet.
The World Energy Council has welcomed more than 70 Ministers to its Ministerial Roundtable at each
Congress, alongside heads of IGOs, Development Banks and a select group of CEOs from around the world
who are ali committed to clean and inclusive energy transitions.
The ways in which we produce, transport and use energy 15 changing and must continue to evolve as we
decarbonise our energy systems, develop new value chains to enhance security, and put people at the
heart of energy transitions.
In this off-the-record and interactive ministerial meeting we invite you to bring your perspective and to
share your experience and ambitions for energy transition. With the support of world class facilitators and
use of the Worid EnergyTrilemma tool, we look forward to making sense of the collaborative actions and
identifying solutions to help meet ambitions.
The World Energy Congress is the world’s longest established energy event, having shaped the global
energy agenda for a century. In today’s unpredictable, turbulent and fast-shifting world, the Congress in
Rotterdam will be the most important energy convening of the next decade. As we take forward our
commitments made at C0P28 into reality, we need to make sure we show up, step up and scale together.
We very much hope to welcome you and your Ieadership voice to the World Energy Congress and to the
private Ministerial Roundtable in Rotterdam.
Yours sincerely,
