According to Marn these two speakers were selected in particular because they are both highly respected in their areas.

The speakers' unique position to discuss the future of energy while the United States is in a point of transition, will be able to contribute to this year's theme of transition.

The dialogue is on the agenda for 9:35 am (local time) on March 10 and is titled "What's Ahead in Washington?" Marn said the conference holds a strong global presence featuring attendees from over 60 countries, energy administrators from over a dozen countries, government officials, CEOs and senior executives from major oil and gas companies, power companies, renewable energy companies and leading technology and financial firms.

Marn described the CERA Week as a "unique and rare opportunity" to get high-level insight from a broad spectrum of policy and industries, saying, "I want to stress the global nature of the conference."

"This is a rare opportunity for us to have insights of two extremely respected senators on where they see US energy policy going, where the agenda goes with the new administration, priorities and, overall, the outlook for the energy as US policy sees it."

This is the 36th CERAWeek to take place and continue to discuss energy future, according to the CERAWeek website.

The speakers will be able to contribute to the energy policy moving forward by discussing what the future energy world will look like with a new presidential administration, Marn said.
