With the theme “The Dynamics within the Energy Market,” this three-day conference brought together over 232 participants from prestigious academic institutions as well as the industry to provide an in-depth look at the changing trends in the energy sector.

The Qatar National Renewable Energy Strategy (QRES), which was introduced in January 2022 to create a thorough road map for the growth of Qatar’s renewable sector, was also presented by guest speaker Eng. Abdul Rahman Al Baker, Manager, Department of Production Planning and Business Development at Qatar General Electricity & Water Corporation (Kahramaa).

The collaborative atmosphere of the seminar was commended by Abdulaziz Mohammed Al Mannai, Executive Vice President for Human Capital at QatarEnergy: “Al Reyada creates a platform for dialogue and provides valuable insights that are key to advancing our grasp of the dynamics of the energy market.” We are grateful for the chance to support this worthwhile initiative.
Held in the Al Wadi Doha – MGallery Hotel Collection in Msheireb, the seminar demonstrated TotalEnergies’ dedication to accessibility and community involvement. It was well situated close to the company’s offices. This location decision made it easier for TotalEnergies’ partners and staff to participate, which enhanced the cooperative environment of the seminar.
The conference came to an end with a gala dinner at Belhambar, a genuine Qatari restaurant known for its creative yet traditional dishes.
