Energy Solutions Forum Presents: Corrado De Gasperis
About this Event
Powering a Resilient Future: Innovation, Energy & Resource Sustainability
Join Corrado De Gasperis for a forward-looking discussion on the future of energy, resources, and decarbonization. Corrado will explore decarbonization as a systems challenge, one that requires more than individual technologies or isolated solutions. Drawing on his extensive experience in manufacturing, materials science, recycling, mining, and renewable energy, he will examine how technology, natural resources, economics, and entrepreneurship can work together to drive practical, scalable change.
Through real-world examples from Comstock’s work in renewable fuels, critical minerals recovery, and advanced materials, Corrado will highlight innovative approaches to improving resource efficiency, accelerating decarbonization, and supporting economic development. The conversation will emphasize how sustainable progress can be achieved by developing solutions that strengthen the performance of entire systems while delivering meaningful environmental, economic, and social benefits.

He brings more than 35 years of leadership experience across industrial manufacturing, metals, mining, recycling, finance, and operational transformation. Prior to joining Comstock in 2010, he served as CEO of Barzel Industries and previously held senior executive roles, including Chief Financial Officer, at GrafTech International. De Gasperis began his career with KPMG and has served on numerous corporate and nonprofit boards, while helping advance technologies aimed at accelerating resource efficiency and decarbonization.
