Ukrainian Energy Forum 2010 Introduction

Adam Smith Conferences are pleased to announce the relaunch of their highly popular Ukrainian Energy Forum, which is scheduled for the beginning of March next year in Kyiv.

One of the key priorities of the Ukrainian government is to raise the level of investment in the energy sector and to this end it has published a comprehensive list of investment projects and has announced the planned privatisation of major stakes in key power generation and distribution companies.

The international energy and investment communities are well aware of the opportunities that exist in the Ukrainian energy sector and are waiting for clear signals that there will be appropriate levels of transparency and a level playing-field for all participants in the market.

The Adam Smith Ukrainian Energy Forum has again been convened to provide a timely and independent platform for dialogue amongst all interested players in the sector – key government decision-makers and regulators, top executives from leading domestic state and private sector companies, current and potential international strategic investors and respected analysts, advisors and financiers.

In the course of 3 days the Forum will cover the whole spectrum of the energy sector in Ukraine, including oil & gas exploration and production; gas production and supply; power generation and distribution; nuclear and coal production; energy efficiency; opportunities in unconventional gas, including shale and coal bed methane; renewable energy, as well as such issues as geopolitical considerations, energy transit, legislative requirements, tenders and licensing, the availability of financing and much more.
