Calling all those interested in attending the BE News ‘Spotlight on Power’ event on 11 November. There are only a handful of places left, so if you want to join up to 80 senior figures from across the built environment industry, energy industry and public sector to discuss the industry’s greatest challenge and opportunity, act now.
Organised by BE News, the only quality, free-to-use news service that covers the entire built environment industry, the free-to-attend event is sponsored by SEGRO and Greenvolt Next UK and will take place between 5pm and 7.30pm at host Avison Young’s office at The Met, 24 Percy St, London W1T 2BS.
The event will kick off with a keynote speech from Professor Jacopo Torriti, professor of energy economics and policy at the School of the Built Environment, University of Reading. In his speech, Professor Torriti will draw on his experience as flexibility theme lead of the Energy Demand Research Centre, member of Ofgem DSO Evaluation Panel and member of the Panel of Technical Experts of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.
His speech will be followed by a one-hour Question Time-style panel debate, which will be moderated by BE News editor-in-chief Liz Hamson and feature panellists: Dave Brend, energy director at SEGRO; Owen Power, CEO of Greenvolt Next UK; Chris Wright, head of sustainability and decarbonisation at Avison Young; Phil Roe, president of Logistics UK; Isabel Fuell, vice president of operations strategy & expansion at Hived; and Genna Boyle, CCO and head of EMEA at Gridcog.
During the debate, we will delve into issues ranging from the impact of electrification, net-zero targets and phasing out of fossil fuels to the roles of renewable and clean energy, how to deal with soaring demand from power-hungry sectors such as data centres and how to modernise the grid.
Following the debate, attendees will have the chance to network with some of the most dynamic figures from across the built environment and energy industries and public sector.
Spaces are strictly limited and there are only a few left, so if you are interested in attending this highly topical event, please register your interest now with Sian Wilde at sian@benews.co.uk or BE News editor-in-chief Liz Hamson at liz@benews.co.uk.
We look forward to seeing you there!
