ALT Honored to speak at AIM Congress 2025 in Abu Dhabi 🇦🇪 on “FDI & the Global Energy Transition.” Grateful to the UAE Ministry of Economy & AIM Global Foundation for hosting such a powerful event with 25,000+ participants from 180 countries. I highlighted: 🔹 FDI is key to scaling next-gen energy (e-fuels, hydrogen), but progress is slow due to red tape, grid issues & lack of early capital 🔹 Permitting delays now exceed 4 yrs in many regions 🔹 MENA & China are moving fast—others risk falling behind 🔹 We need action on the ground: aligned policy, planning & investment Huge thanks to my co-panelists Meng Liu (UN Global Compact) & Christina Deligianni (EPLO), and to Rahul Basuroy & team for the collaboration. #AIMCongress2025 #FDI #EnergyTransition #CleanEnergy #GreenHydrogen #Sustainability #AbuDhabi

ALT Carbon emissions are everyone's concern. They don't respect borders or boundaries. If one nation curbs its carbon, yet its neighbour doesn't, we all suffer. The only true solution is one that rewards reducers and penalizes emitters on a global scale. Currently, carbon pricing only tackles 25% of global emissions. This isn't enough. We need a unified approach where emitting carbon hits the wallet, and reducing it benefits it. Imagine the possibilities with global carbon pricing: not only making emissions costly but also funding the urgent shift to green technologies. It’s a self-sustaining mechanism that turns carbon liabilities into green assets. For a net-zero future, given the USD 1.7 trillion annual challenge highlighted by IRENA, broadening carbon pricing isn't just smart—it's a global duty. The planet's health demands a collaborative effort where emitters pay their due, and reducers reap the rewards. 🌏🌱 Skyscrapers Shanghai a hazy polluting day 2017.
