Collaboration delivering support for the energy transition
EI Technical + Innovation offers two tiers of membership: Technical Partner and Technical Company Member. Both tiers of membership allow access to the wider benefits of the EI.

"It is my privilege to work in collaboration with members of the EI, regulators and wider stakeholders, and to lead the development and delivery of technical resources which are used globally across our industry."
We are funded and supported by technical company members and partners in 120 countries. We produce research on health, safety, environment and quality (HSEQ) issues and set standards and good practice in support of safe and responsible generation of energy. Our members and partners from across the energy world benefit hugely from participation in, and access to, our technical and innovation work.

"As we face an increasingly complex global energy landscape, the need for collaboration, innovation, and shared expertise has never been more critical."
At its core, our technical work programme is designed to generate tangible, value adding returns for our industry partners. Our members are not just participants but influential contributors to the future of the global energy sector – their expertise and experience have a direct voice in shaping the course of the industry.
