The UK’s energy system is increasing in complexity, driven by rising electricity demand, the decentralisation of generation, and the variability of renewables. A lack of system-wide thinking on electrification, particularly from the built environment perspective, is a challenge we can no longer afford if we are to meet the UK’s energy security goals, protect against fuel poverty and strengthen system resilience. A more coordinated approach is therefore critical to improving energy sovereignty, reducing reliance on imports and minimising exposure to volatile energy prices. 

This breakfast event will explore the first insights from a forthcoming UKGBC report which examines the key barriers and enablers to increasing resilience in the UK’s energy infrastructure and distribution systems and accelerating the move to electrification.

Why Attend?
