The meeting will take place in person on Tuesday 24 June 2025, from 10.30 am – 12.30 pm, at TUSIAD, Avenue des Gaulois, 13, Brussels 1040, and will be followed by a networking lunch.

Workshop leader:

Istvan Czilik, CEO, Revenue.AI

Introduced and moderated by:

Marat Terterov, Principal Representative, Brussels Energy Club

Topic Background and Session Agenda

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has fast become a buzzword, if not a practical lifestyle application, leading us into an entirely new means of doing things for both business and pleasure. When it comes to trading in energy commodities as well as the energy industry more broadly, AI, as a new and innovative form of technology, has all the hallmarks of becoming another game changer. From conducting random price forecasts for traders, to portfolio optimization and risk management for energy companies, to predictive maintenance and grid efficiency for operators, AI is leading the global energy sector into an entirely new future.

That said, there are many myths as well as unknown qualities about AI. This is particularly relevant to its practical application in the energy sector and the investment decision-making process.

• How will AI help us predict the price of oil and other globally tradable energy commodities?

• Will it simplify the decision-making process on large-scale, long-term investments into upstream fossil fuel projects as well as renewable energy projects alike?

• How can AI become the preferred companion for the full breadth and depth of global energy supply chains?

Please join us for the next meeting of the Brussels Energy Club for our AI and Energy Trading Workshop. In this highly interactive masterclass, fully geared for audience participation, we will demonstrate how our curiosity about tomorrow’s technological future can provide a competitive advantage for key market actors today.

There is no time like the present!

We look forward to welcoming you to the Brussels Energy Club on Tuesday, June 24, for what promises to be a truly enthralling discussion.
