Houston's status as the Energy Capital of the World is well-established, and solidly founded on the extensive oil and gas industry that has long been a driving force in the city and the region. However, as the drive to decarbonize takes shape, the extensive infrastructure within the Greater Houston Area and beyond provides a unique opportunity for creative transformations. Analysis by a team from the University of Houston's Bauer College of Business - Gutierrez Energy Management Institute, the Center for Houston's Future (CHF), and UH Energy outlines four areas in which the Houston region can lead the global energy transition: carbon capture, utilization and storage; hydrogen; decarbonizing the electricity grid; and the circular economy/plastics recycling. This talk provides an overview of the opportunity that stands before us to thrive through the energy transition.
