Why the global energy transition is moving at different speeds
Aug 07, 2026
In this episode of the Energy Connects Podcast, we revisit a conversation with Asheesh Shastry, Managing Director and Senior Partner at Boston Consulting Group (BCG), to explore why there is no single global energy transition, but multiple transitions progressing at different speeds. Asheesh shares insights into the key trends driving the energy sector, from rising electricity demand and shifting investment priorities to the growing focus on returns, resilience and execution. The conversation also examines how energy leaders can navigate uncertainty, allocate capital effectively, and maintain momentum in a rapidly evolving landscape.
