World politics, carbon reduction initiatives and the lingering impact of a global pandemic have teamed up to create an unprecedented business environment. Trading companies across all energy sectors including oil, gas, coal, power and renewables are facing high prices, rising inflation, high volatility and an uncertain future. Energy Trading Week Americas has been developed to give trading, risk, IT and sustainability experts the tools and tactics they need to position their companies for success in these turbulent times.

This is the only conference focused on the areas of commonality between all energy commodities and will bring together more than 500 delegates and 70 speakers to gain insight, share perspectives and do business! We have made this event free to delegates from qualified energy trading company, so there’s no reason to miss this must-attend, one-of a kind event. We look forward to seeing you in Houston this October.

The Energy Trading Risk Summit (formerly an Alpha Insight event) has been incorporated as a stream of this multi-track event. Featuring perspectives from leading risk leaders from across the energy industry, risk practitioners will receive the critical insights they need, at this information-packed event.
