Show Notes
Energy demand continues to grow, but the defining feature of today's energy system is volatility.
In this episode, Nick Studer, Incoming Chief Executive Officer of Marsh Risk, President and Chief Executive Office of Olivier Wyman, joins Atul alongside Mark Pellerin, Global Head of Energy & Natural Resources at Oliver Wyman, to discuss how rising uncertainty is reshaping decision-making across the energy sector—and why risk management and insurability are increasingly shaping which energy projects get financed and built.
Key topics:
- Risk management shifting from operational issue to board-level priority
- The surge in power demand from data centers and implications for infrastructure investment
- Bankability and insurability shaping the pace of new energy technologies
- A "commercially smart" energy transition where profitability and sustainability must coexist
- Climate adaptation and resilience as growing balance-sheet considerations
This episode builds ahead to CERAWeek 2026, March 23–27 in Houston, where leaders will examine how risk, resilience and capital allocation are shaping the next phase of the global energy system. Learn more at ceraweek.com
