VII Scientific Conference “Energy Security – Pillars and Development Perspective” will be held in the hybrid formula (possible participation in stationary or online) on September 12-13, 2022 at Rzeszów University of Technology.

The event is organised by the Ignacy Łukasiewicz Institute for Energy Policy in cooperation with the Rzeszów University of Technology.

We encourage you to visit the Conference website: www.instytutpe.pl/en/konferencja2022-en

The main objective of the Conference is to contribute to the scientific and expert discussion on energy security policy and the broader energy sector. We believe that the creation of a platform for holding debate involving scientists, experts, representatives of public administration, energy companies, NGOs, business journalists and students will contribute to the development of scientific output in this area.

One of the main topics of this year’s discussions will be an assessment of energy security of the countries on NATO’s eastern flank in the context of the policy of the Russian Federation and an analysis of the changes occurring in global energy policy as a result of the war in Ukraine, drawing conclusions for Poland and Western Europe. We plan to analyze the geo-economic dimension of the crisis and issues related to the use of economics for political and geopolitical purposes. The talks will focus on the topics of energy transition, nuclear power including small SMR reactors, hydrogen, wind power and low-carbon sources of energy production.

One of the panels will be dedicated to Ignacy Łukasiewicz (the patron of the year 2022), who was a pioneer of the global oil industry and spent most of his life in the Rzeszów area. Moreover, during the Conference the Ignacy Łukasiewicz Award in the field of energy security will be presented and the 2nd edition of the Competition for the Most Innovative Energy Local Government will be adjudicated.
