Join BSR’s Future of Fuels for the first in a series of webinar-based practitioner discussions to explore the complex, dynamic issues around corporate fuel sustainability.

Oil: Conventional Oil, Oil Sands, and Heavy Oil, Tight Oil, and Oil Shale

What is the current role of oil in our transportation fuel system, and how is it changing with the emergence of unconventional sources and new production technologies? What is the breadth of sustainability issues involved with oil production?

Focus of the Webinar Series

In June and July, four 90-minute roundtable discussions on oil, natural gas, biofuels, and electric vehicles will allow experienced practitioners and decision-makers to ask questions and weigh in on fuel sustainability issues. Participants will have further opportunities to shape a shared, BSR-led perspective on what business should do to improve the sustainability impacts of fuel.

Format and Participants

These discussions extend from our recent Stakeholder Forum on Fuel Sustainability Opportunities and are part of our wider series of Stakeholder Forums on the Future of Fuels. At each forum, BSR will share perspectives on the issues, outlook, and role of business, and then facilitate discussion. Participants will be fleet operators, vehicle manufacturers, energy producers, and civil society and other interested stakeholders (see who attended our most recent forum here).

Registration

To participate, please register for the events individually using the links included on each event page. Participants should feel free to register for all four sessions, mix and match, or attend just one webinar, depending on level of interest and availability.

We also invite questions, comments, and expressions of interest in advance. Please email futureoffuels@bsr.org or visit our blog, “Weigh In on the Future of Fuels,” to provide commentary.
