The European Space Agency (ESA), in collaboration with the European Association of Remote Sensing Companies (EARSC) and the International Association of Oil & Gas Producers (IOGP), is organising Space Solutions for Energy Challenges, taking place on 11–12 January 2027 at ESA-ESRIN in Frascati, Italy.

Bringing together representatives from across the energy sector and the Earth Observation (EO) community, the workshop will explore how satellite-derived information can support operational and strategic decision-making across an evolving energy landscape. Discussions will address areas including renewable energy, emissions and environmental monitoring, infrastructure and asset integrity, risk management and sustainability, alongside emerging EO technologies and commercial services.

A key focus will be on better understanding and addressing the gap between what satellite technologies deliver and the information energy stakeholders need to make well-informed operational and business decisions.
