Private high-level CEO and Ministerial roundtable meetings are hosted alongside these gatherings allowing for interaction and shared insights and side events may also be organised. Its mission is to: o o o o Convene energy leaders and practitioners from across the spectrum of the energy system to identify and set the priorities of the world energy community; Provide a stage for the Council s content and insights, and to share perspectives on new developments and experiences across the global energy system and how each country can address its energy trilemma; Catalyse thought leadership; Assess strategic priorities for the Council across content, network and platforms, allowing time for regional and global communities to come together.

9 The Council convened its 2012 Executive Assembly in Monaco on 8th November and at the Plenary HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco gave the opening address. HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco addresses the NMC members ( ) All across the world, wherever my travels take me, especially for my environmental action, I know how difficult it is to change the bases of our lifestyle, particularly when the economic crisis weakens each of us and when the future appears grim. That is why your role is to propose new solutions and should be at the heart of any approach concerning our relationship with energy. As such, I appreciated that your discussions focused on the correlation between the three essential requirements: security, accessibility, and above all respect for the environment. This obligation does not preclude, quite on the contrary, our duty to pursue the demanding innovative and inventive work by which you are motivated. Because finding energy solutions that are abundant, safe and sustainable is the primary condition for fundamental change ( ) 2012 Executive Assembly
