The Business Council for Sustainable Energy at Climate Week NYC

BCSE Events

Elevating technology solutions for climate mitigation and adaptation.

Climate Week NYC is the largest annual climate event of its kind, bringing together some 1,000+ events and activities across the City of New York – in person, hybrid, and online. From September 20 27, 2026, businesses, governments, communities, and individuals will convene to elevate the solutions and strategies being deployed to meet energy demand affordably, reliably, and sustainably. BCSE is hosting and participating in several events throughout the week.

The Business Council for Sustainable Energy (BCSE) – a coalition of companies and trade associations that deploy clean energy and decarbonization solutions, with a sector focus on energy efficiency, natural gas, and renewable energy – will bring a delegation of executives from the private sector that innovate, finance, and deploy technologies and systems that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance resilience, and drive economic growth.
