With the UK now committed to 15% of all energy to come from renewables by 2020, the energy landscape is changing. Energy consumers are becoming energy generators. Increasingly heat and power is being generated on or near site as energy users seek out the most effective way to de-carbonise their energy supply. This change is happening across both the commercial and residential sectors of our economy.


This conference looked at the drivers for the new low carbon energy economy. We showcased best practice and gave an overview of the developing prospect. This annual event is a must for the traditional energy sector and house builders, developers, urban regenerators, companies with carbon reduction goals and others.
