ENERGY TRANSITION & SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIES

Powering the energy transition from Qatar to the world

As a global energy hub and leading LNG producer, Qatar plays a critical role in shaping the future of clean energy, low-carbon fuels, and sustainable finance. At GIF 2026 in Doha, the Energy & Sustainability sector brings together policymakers, energy leaders, investors, and innovators to accelerate practical, scalable pathways toward a lower-carbon global energy system.

From Energy Leadership to Energy Transition

Qatar’s long-standing leadership in natural gas, LNG infrastructure, and energy exports positions the country at the center of the global transition. The focus is now on:

  • Reducing lifecycle emissions across LNG value chains
  • Deploying carbon capture and storage (CCS) at industrial scale
  • Developing hydrogen as a future export and domestic energy solution
  • Expanding renewable energy capacity alongside gas
  • Mobilizing transition finance to support long-term sustainability goals

GIF 2026 provides a platform where regional ambition meets global expertise.
