Energy Transition Agenda 2026 – Regional Approach Chișinău

  • Thursday, October 22
  • 09:00 - 15:00 (EEST)
  • MAIB PARK

Thursday, 22 October 2026, starting at 09:00 (registration opens at 08:30), Energynomics organizes at MAIB PARK in Chișinău (127 31 August 1989 Street, see map!), the 8th edition of the conference dedicated to the Republic of Moldova in the Regional Approach series. This year’s edition is organized in partnership with the European Business Association (EBA) Moldova, the leading independent, nongovernmental organization dedicated to promoting the private business sector in the Republic of Moldova.

The B2B conference, held in-person, proposes in 2026 a more selective and more practical approach, adapted to an energy market that is more dynamic, more complex and more demanding. Instead of trying to cover everything in a single day, we focus on the topics where change is already real and where dialogue among authorities, companies, investors and technology providers can generate clarity, confidence and concrete projects.
