Reimagining the energy enterprise in times of change and uncertainty

      Geopolitics, technology and sustainability priorities are reshaping the energy and resources sector. The consequent changes in enterprise strategy, structure, capabilities and ways of working have become pronounced. The energy production and supply landscape has also been changing with renewables, energy storage, and now nuclear power (almost a pariah just two years ago) becoming mainstream. Since early in the year, we also have heightened geopolitical impacts that has inserted new uncertainty in energy demand, prices and supply chains. All of these are material bearing on the market dynamics and strategies, which is what we will explore at ENRich 2025. 

      Beyond the impact of heightened geopolitics, there are some significant trends at play that will reshape the energy industry. Modern AI is the foremost among them and there is no doubt that it is reshaping the energy sector. It presents challenges, such as navigating cybersecurity risks, addressing ethical considerations and of course the demands it places on our industry. At the same time, AI offers transformative opportunities — optimizing operations, innovative product development, driving predictive maintenance to boost efficiency, radically transforming safety, and much more. With the advent of AI/ML, Generative AI and Agentic AI coming together to deliver unforeseen possibilities, the sector is expected to witness a very fast paced change. This is also fundamentally reshaping the construct of a modern energy organisation.

      ENRich, KPMG in India’s flagship ENR conclave, is not a usual conference – it serves as a major forum for ideation among senior stakeholders in a very different format that provides space for open deliberations and identification of consequential actions with significant participation from senior policy makers and industry leaders on the panels.
