Moderator Mark Menezes is CEO of the United States Energy Association. Paula Gant is the CEO of GTI Energy.
The United States Energy Association held its 20th State of the Energy Industry Forum at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. in late January 2024. This Innovation panel focused on breakthrough technologies to achieve net-zero goals and increase access to affordable and reliable energy. Technologies are being developed to adapt natural gas turbines to increased use of hydrogen blends. DOE has launched a series of initiatives to foster the development of hydrogen, long-duration energy storage, and other new technologies.
The panel was moderated by USEA CEO Mark Menezes and included Fuel Cell & Hydrogen Energy Association CEO Frank Wolak, Gas Turbines Association Vice Chair Carlos Koeneke, GTI Energy CEO Paula Gant, and National Hydropower Association CEO Malcolm Woolf. Enjoy these excerpted remarks by GTI Energy CEO Paula Gant.
GTI Energy CEO Paula Gant: At GTI Energy we're optimistic about the types of transitions that are underway and the future of energy systems. A recent point of optimism, for me, comes out of COP28, which is not something I usually say when reporting on the COPs.
