With a Climate Emergency declared and binding commitment by Government to achieve Zero net carbon emissions by 2050, decarbonisation of both our gas and electricity networks is crucial.

Today, about 15% of UK CO² emissions come from how people use heat and hot water at home. These emissions must be effectively eliminated by 2050 to meet carbon targets. The biggest challenge in decarbonising heat is that many of the solutions proposed will require changes at a domestic level. Decarbonisation will have to be delivered in the least disruptive way possible and maintain the extremely high reliability that customers are used to.

At this year’s event we hear from consumer bodies, energy suppliers, manufacturers and the gas distribution networks on how they will put consumers at the heart of heat decarbonisation including:

• Future energy markets and the implications for consumers

• How will the energy sector work with consumers

• Customer challenges and opportunities

As usual the event will showcase a topical supply chain exhibition and provides an ideal forum for networking and continued learning.

The event will conclude with an optional Manufacturing tour of Jaguar. What does it take to bring to life some of the most technologically advanced cars in the world? See 'Behind the Roar' at Jaguar Castle Bromwich and discover how the manufacturing operations have developed from building Spitfire aeroplanes in the 1940s, to iconic Jaguar vehicles.
