Executive Summary
The global energy landscape is undergoing seismic shifts. COVID-19 exposed the fragility of traditional energy systems and prompted an urgent reassessment of how nations generate, distribute, and consume energy. In this ABLF Talks Live session, Mr Khalid bin Hadi offered an incisive perspective on how Siemens Energy is responding to these challenges, particularly in Oman and the broader Middle East. He emphasized that the path to decarbonization must be pragmatic, inclusive, and financially viable. Key themes included smart financing mechanisms for the Global South, integrated clean energy technologies, and the need for resilient local talent development. The discussion positioned Siemens Energy as a critical actor in bridging today’s realities with tomorrow’s low-carbon ambitions through deep public-private partnerships and systemic innovation.
