Today’s 2nd Session, “Sustainable Energy for All” was moderated by Slavtcho Neykov, NIS Deputy CEO, Director of the Energy Community Secretariat 2006-2012. Speakers included Sukhbaatar BATBOLD, PM of Mongolia, 2009 – 2012, CGDC International Board Member, Suleiman Jasir AL-HERBISH, Director General of OPEC Fund for International Development – OFID Günter PYTEL, MCI Invest CEO and Advisor to Chinese Municipalities on energy issues and Emmanuel LIMIDO, President WIRE World Institute for Renewable Energies and Chairman of Centuria Capital.

Slavtcho Neykov, NIS Deputy CEO, Director of the Energy Community Secretariat 2006-2012, commented that, “The key message arising from the discussion was that it is evident that realism and pragmatism are necessary when it comes to strategic energy development, regardless whether we consider interventions by politicians, international organisations or private business. However, it is the politicians who mostly owe a responsibility to society when working to establish a framework which allows adequate development beyond their political mandate.”
