The international energy conference CERAWeek by IHS Markit kicked off Monday, and for the first time, it’s not being held in Houston. Instead, speakers are joining virtually from across the world.
Last March, CERAWeek was the first major event in Houston that was canceled as the coronavirus started to become a global pandemic.
