Watch on demand: Resilience in the real world, the DTEK story
Event Date:
What does sustainability look like when the stakes are existential? In this keynote conversation from our recent sustainability summit, KEY ESG co-founder Heleen van Poecke speaks with Jeffrey Oatham, Chief Sustainability Officer at DTEK, Ukraine's largest private energy company, about leading sustainability through conflict, energy security as a driver of the green transition, and why the underlying case for renewables hasn't changed despite the noise.
This is a rare, unfiltered perspective from someone doing the work under genuinely extreme conditions.
In this session:
- How DTEK thinks about resilience, and why renewables are now primarily a security argument, not a climate one
- The ESG backlash, the EU Omnibus, and what actually matters long-term
- Why reframing "sustainability" in different language sometimes keeps more doors open
- What sustainability leadership looks like in 20 years
Speakers: Jeffrey Oatham, Chief Sustainability Officer, DTEK · Heleen van Poecke, Co-founder, KEY ESG
