The UN Climate Conferences are seen as important arenas for IGU to inform public servants and other delegates about the contributions of the gas industry towards a low-carbon economy and addressing gas issues in a climate perspective.

Based on the successful concept of the Gas Event at COP15, IGU  started early to prepare for a similar event in collaboration with Worldwatch , an independent US-based international research organisation focused on energy, resource and environmental issues. Speakers included:

- Mr Kandeh Yumkella, Director General, United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO),
 Chair of UN-Energy  and Chair of the UN Secretary-General’s Advisory Group on  Energy and Climate Change    (AGECC)
- Mr Nobuo Tanaka, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA)
- Mr Jos Delbeke, Director-General, Climate Action, EU Commission

 

The event  took place on 5 December 2010 in Hilton Cancun.
