Viitorul Energiei Gala - Steps towards the future: On November 20, 2024, a significant moment for the Oil and Gas Employers' Federation took place: the change of the title to Federația Patronală a Energiei and the change of the communication symbols.
The transformation reflects a reality of our times: zero-carbon technologies are increasingly joining the ranks of conventional fuel technologies.
It is certain that investments in this area are necessary and welcome, regardless of the future pace of renewable energy development, and Federația Patronală a Energiei will continue to support the existence of a rich national energy mix.
Romania possesses important resources, from natural gas to biomethane plant mass, from oil to areas suitable for wind and solar parks, and exploiting them means a secure energy supply for Romania.
Federația Patronală a Energiei believes that we must continue to pursue the goal of energy independence for the country, by producing sufficient quantities of energy, utilizing all this multitude of resources. Also, the combined use of conventional and renewable technologies will mean affordable energy for an increasing number of Romanians, both in terms of infrastructure and price.
The energy sector is not only asked to be diverse, but also to grow, as digitization and the anticipated development of industry will demand increasing amounts of energy. To meet society's demands, member companies are stepping up their efforts in both directions - conventional and renewable resources alike - by investing heavily in patents, equipment and staff skills. The efforts of the private sector gain meaning and results in the context of comprehensive, up-to-date legislation, and Federația Patronală a Energiei will continue to be an effective promoter of an appropriate legislative framework.
Daniel Apostol, The Director General of the Federation of Energy Employers emphasizes that:
"Every year, the Viitorul Energiei Gala has brought together prominent representatives of the energy sector, whom I thank both for their participation and for the very good collaboration with the federation. It is very important that we stick together in this period of change. Because, without instigating isolationism, we need to be aware that Romania is capable of producing its own energy at home, in order to provide prosperity for Romanians, to revive its industry, but also to create stability in the region. The gala hosted by the federation is an evening of confidence in one's own strengths, an assumption of performance as a way of achieving our goals, of good collaboration, values that all of Romania should cherish and put into practice in all areas. We invite to the Federation all companies and entities that believe in the same values."
Viitorul Energiei Gala is an annual event bringing together representatives from the energy sector and valued partners from other fields. As before any action there are principles, which determine the efficiency and fairness of what is done, the 2024 edition of the Viitorul Energiei Gala was dedicated to the values cultivated by the energy sector.
This year's edition highlighted companies and projects that embody values such as partnership, efficiency, stability, etc., representing a model of excellence for the entire economic environment.
