World Energy Council

The World Energy Council (WEC) is the world's oldest independent and impartial community of energy leaders and practitioners. With the slogan "Humanising energy," WEC aims to involve more people and communities in accelerating clean and just energy transitions globally. Established in 1923, the Council has over 3,000 member organisations across nearly 100 countries, comprising governments, private and state corporations, academia, and civil society. The WEC's global network collaborates on impact programmes and informs energy agendas to promote sustainable energy use and supply for the benefit of all people. The Council convenes leadership dialogues such as the World Energy Congress to foster new collaborations and steer impact. It offers practical tools like the World Energy Trilemma Framework to define, support, and better manage energy transitions globally. Despite not having recent investment information available, the WEC's enduring mission and its century-long experience in convening diverse energy interests position it as a significant player in shaping the future of energy transitions on a global scale.
