Future Energy Leaders FEL-100

The World Energy Council’s Future Energy Leaders’ Programme – the FEL-100– is a global and diverse network of young energy professionals. The programme serves as a platform for engaging a limited number of ambitious young professionals in national, regional and international activities and events.  Its objective is to inspire participants to become the next generation of energy leaders capable of solving the world’s most pressing challenges regarding energy and sustainability.

Through the programme, Future Energy Leaders can further their experience, knowledge and skills in an energy-focused environment and contribute to the Council’s global dialogue. FEL-100 participants are provided with the unique opportunity to create their own personal networks of like-minded, equally motivated personalities today, and together become the energy leaders of tomorrow.

FEL-100 initiatives

In addition to contributing to World Energy Council’s flagship study groups, the FEL develop their own series of ongoing initiatives.

FEL-100 Summit

Supported by the local country’s ministry of energy, this annual summit provides a platform for young leaders to explore critical issues in the energy agenda, providing a unique platform to develop global insight. High-level speakers and panellists include policymakers, industry leaders and carefully selected energy experts.

FEL-100 Congress

Every three years the FEL Congress is held in parallel with the Council’s World Energy Congress. With an integrated programme aimed specifically for future leaders, this premier energy gathering offers a unique opportunity to better understand energy issues and solutions from a global perspective.

During each Congress, the FEL-100 declare their vision for the future of global energy, outlining their priorities and agenda items.

FEL-100 Projects

The Future Energy Leaders’ (FEL) Projects form an integral part of the programme as they shape the development of the FEL community and provide unique opportunities for international cooperation. Through a flexible and interactive system, the programme enables FELs to design projects with valuable and interactive outputs – webinars, events, online tools, case studies, practical projects etc.

Participation to the Council’s Working Groups

Future Energy Leaders take part in the production of the Council’s authoritative studies as experts or observers. Through the programme, they can directly develop their experience, knowledge and skills in an energy-focused environment, also contributing to the Council’s global dialogue.

FEL-100 Issues Monitor

The Issues Monitor is essential tool developed by the World Energy Council, which assesses the uncertainty, urgency and impact of critical issues in the future energy landscape. Future Energy Leaders (FEL) participate to the World Energy Issues Monitor and produce their own maps, which provide a unique comparative insight into the outlook of current and future leaders within the energy sector.
