Decarbonising the UK Energy System: A Whole System Approach

Fundamental, unprecedented change is required across the entire energy sector to meet the UK Net Zero targets, this year’s company member conference will address the role of gas industry developments in the context of the whole energy system.

You will hear from key speakers working at the forefront of the latest industry initiatives from production through to utilisation, who will discuss the issues and challenges ahead for the gas industry and our part in the big picture. We will look at the progress being made, our goals, and the trials past, present and future that will enable the UK to hit its net zero target, while giving a nod to learning from the past.

To be successful our activities must be part of a joined-up plan spread across all energy sources, there is no one size fits all approach that will work for the future, we will need to work collectively with alternative producers of energy to find the most effective way forward, this is a great chance to understand how things are shaping up and where the gas industry sits in the big picture.
