WPC Energy is a non-advocacy, non-political UK registered charity and United Nations accredited non-governmental organisation, formed in 1933 and comprising 60 National Committees. It runs the WPC Energy Congress, a global energy gathering of policymakers, industry leaders, engineers, academics and NGOs that seeks workable paths to a net zero future.

Surplus from events and all profits from its activities are dedicated to charitable legacy projects in Congress host countries and through a central WPC Energy Legacy Fund.
