Brilliantly organised event, stacked with E-Fuel industry knowledge and firepower! The conference delivered a pragmatic atmosphere, combining highly insightful panels and keynotes, along with deeply engaging roundtables - the 'huddle' concept is a winner!

The Global Synthetic Fuels Assembly was an excellent opportunity to exchange with policymakers and industry leaders on the future of clean molecules. I was impressed by the quality of the discussions and the level of engagement from across the value chain. It is a unique forum that truly helps move the dialogue forward on how to scale synthetic fuels such as e-NG/e-methane globally.

Sustainability at the Global Synthetic Fuels Assembly
At The Energy Huddle, sustainability is more than a buzzword - it’s built into every detail. We’re making conscious choices around our event, so we can reduce waste, lower our footprint, and inspire change across the energy sector.
Here’s how we’re doing it:
-
Lanyards made from recycled PET - turning plastic waste into purpose
-
Cardboard pull-up banners: Fully recyclable and low-impact
-
Seeded name badges: Plant them after the event and grow something green
We believe thoughtful design leads to meaningful conversations. By embedding sustainability into the event experience, we’re setting the tone for a cleaner, smarter energy future.
