RGI’s CEO Antonella Battaglini has been recognised by the World Economic Forum (WEF) as “one of the world’s most relevant and knowledgeable” experts concerning the future of electricity.

Antonella will be a member of the international organisation’s soon-to-be-established “Global Agenda Council on the Future of Electricity” for the next two years. The Council’s main task is to deliver strategic ideas for the long-term electricity future, which will guide the WEF Energy Utilities & Energy Technologies Industry Community during the current transformation.
