Randall Atkins to Speak at the 10th Annual Energy Summit

Randall W. Atkins, the Chairman and CEO of Ramaco Resources, is set to be a featured speaker at the upcoming 10th Annual Energy Summit, themed 'Energy, Risk, and Geopolitics.' Organized by Baker Botts L.L.P. and the Center for Energy Studies at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy, the event is scheduled for October 6-7, 2026, in Houston, Texas. This year’s summit aims to unite leaders from various sectors of the energy industry, focusing on the rapidly evolving dynamics of global energy markets, geopolitical risks, energy policy, and energy security.

At the summit, Atkins will delve into pressing topics impacting the U.S. energy and natural resources sectors. Among the issues he will highlight is the increasingly strategic importance of domestic supply chains for critical minerals. Discussing Ramaco’s exploratory Brook Mine, which focuses on rare earth elements and critical minerals located in Wyoming, he aims to underline the role of these resources in securing America's energy and national security interests.

Atkins stated, "America's energy and mineral security are becoming ever more interconnected with our national and economic security. I am eager to participate in discussions at Baker Botts’ Energy Summit and share our views on fortifying domestic supply chains for the critical minerals and materials essential to underpinning America's industrial and technological future."

The discussions during the summit will explore how geopolitical and economic factors influence energy markets, with a particular focus on the implications of supply chain vulnerabilities and the necessity to strengthen local resources. The gathering of industry experts and policymakers at the Energy Summit aims to facilitate crucial dialogues, fostering a better understanding of the interconnected nature of energy policy and geopolitical considerations today.
