Upscale your knowledge and hear from the best and brightest within the renewable and low carbon energy sector

Sponsored by UKRI

Central to the vision for a net-zero future are the ambitious plans of the UKRI’s Industrial Decarbonisation challenge that will invest in the development of low-carbon technologies to increase the competitiveness of industry and contribute to the UK’s drive for clean growth. It will reduce the carbon footprint of heavy and energy intensive industries in the UK, such as iron and steel, cement, refining and chemicals.

The £170 million investment by UKRI, matched by £261 million from industry, aims to establish the world’s first net zero industrial clusters by 2040, largely through carbon capture, utilisation and storage and by establishing hydrogen networks. 

Today’s session will bring together the six IDC Cluster Plan projects, each of which is developing a blueprint to achieve net-zero emissions in an industrial cluster. The session will explore their plans and discuss the roadmap ahead.

Decarbonising UK’s industry: A path to Net-Zero

Sponsored by Shepherd and Wedderburn

The Energy White Paper builds on the Prime Minister’s Ten Point Plan for a Green Industrial Revolution and contemplates the most radical set of changes to the UK energy system since privatisation.  

It sets out proposals for significant acceleration towards net zero and covers carbon capture and storage, energy transition and distribution, heat, offshore wind and energy efficiency.  How it interacts with the policies of devolved administrations is a key topic of discussion, as is the pace of regulatory and legislative reform required.  How the 2030 targets can be achieved at a realistic cost to consumers is also a critical issue.
 
John Grady, Gordon Downie and Tom Swan, partners at law firm Shepherd and Wedderburn, All-Energy’s Headline Sponsor, will discuss these topics and more on Wednesday

The UK Energy White Paper: A review of key points

Sponsored by UK Research and Innovation

Energy is the pulse of our day-to-day life, but the drive for net zero will require a massive change in the way we create and use it. With new technologies and complex integration needed, it is increasingly clear that there is one important factor in making our future integrated energy systems work: data.

Already, smart technology is entering our homes and companies are using big data to respond better to consumer preferences. We are learning that digital technologies can make distributed energy the cheapest and cleanest form of energy.
 
UKRI’s ‘Prospering from the Energy Revolution’ programme is pioneering the data-enabled systems approach to unlock the benefits of smart local energy systems. These systems improve the efficiency of existing infrastructure, capture value and provide local jobs, helping to distribute prosperity; while society gains clean, cheap energy delivered in ways that suit modern net zero lives, lived locally.
 
This session brings together the government, the energy disruptors, and the regulators to discuss: 
● How could better energy data satisfy both households and industry?
● What policies and regulations are needed to support innovative data-based solutions to provide new services?
● How can we ensure these innovations benefit diverse consumers, and protect everyone against emerging risks?
● What data frameworks are needed to enable local infrastructure investment and innovation at scale and pace in different places?

Harnessing the power of data: Accelerating to Net-Zero

Decarbonising transport is a top priority for both the UK and Scottish governments. Scotland’s vision is for a sustainable, inclusive, safe, and accessible transport system helping deliver a healthier, fairer, and more prosperous Scotland for communities, businesses, and visitors. This webinar has three key pillars – transport strategy; preparing the economy for a low carbon future; and air quality. Half a dozen experts from government and industry will share their knowledge, experience, and key takeaways.

The opening ‘scene setter’ presentation will provide a look at Scotland’s National Transport Strategy and the role of carbon in relation to both technology and behaviour change. 

Attention then turns to the UK’s Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund and the ‘Driving the Electric Revolution’ challenge; ‘Powering zero-emission mobility: How, What and When?’ and ‘Opportunities for Scotland in zero-emission heavy-duty vehicles’. And then ‘Air Quality’ and the steps being taken to move the dial on this essential subject will come under the webinar spotlight.

Next steps in transport: Decarbonising mobility and reducing air pollution

Sponsored by The Scottish Government 

In the first webinar on 5 November, which includes a keynote address by Paul Wheelhouse MSP, Minister for Energy, Connectivity and the Islands, our speakers will look at policy, strategy, and the organisations resetting the dial with their ambitious plans for the future.

Now we home in on solutions. First, we look at the Low Carbon Infrastructure Transition Programme (LCITP) the aim of which is to support Scotland's transition to a low-carbon economy. It provides a range of support, from expert advice to financial support to assist the development and delivery of private, public, and community low-carbon projects across Scotland. Its main focus is assisting projects to develop investment-grade business cases and providing capital funding that will help secure public and private match finance to demonstrate innovative low-carbon technologies. 

You’ll also hear from Warmworks who deliver the Scottish Government’s nationwide energy efficiency scheme, Warmer Homes Scotland. This provides insulation, efficient heating, and renewable technologies in the homes of households who are struggling with the cost of high energy bills. Next comes the Energy Saving Trust about their advice and support programmes followed by Zero Waste Scotland who will talk about the SME Loans Programme. All will be sharing those all-important ‘lessons learned’ and success stories.

Energy Efficient Scotland: Solutions & the Future

Sponsored by The Scottish Government 

Minister Paul Wheelhouse MSP will set the scene with a keynote address at the start of this webinar and be on hand for a brief time to answer questions. You will also hear from those concerned directly with policy and strategy; and from those determined to move the dial to ensure ever-greater levels of energy efficiency and use of low carbon heat.

Heating our buildings is responsible for a significant proportion of Scotland’s emissions.  As such, work to make our homes and buildings of all sorts more energy efficient and to transition heating systems to renewable or low carbon sources is critical.

The Energy Efficient Scotland programme builds on existing legislation and programmes that are already supporting the improvement of the energy efficiency of homes, businesses, and public buildings, as well as the work done with local authorities to develop Local Heat and Energy Efficiency Strategies (LHEES).

Meet the Minister: An update on Energy Efficient Scotland

Sponsored by SSE Renewables and GreenPower  

There’s a climate emergency. The UK and Scottish targets are really bold, with the expansion of onshore wind expected to be a major part of the heavy lifting over the next ten years. Government advice is a likely trebling of current onshore wind capacity. To make projects work on a viable basis, however, from modest community projects to large utility-scale projects, we need a supportive planning system, which includes accommodating the most efficient modern larger turbines.
Previous polls at industry seminars for onshore wind highlight planning policy at the top of the list of challenges. The questions for this webinar are:
Is Scotland dealing with planning policy radically enough to match the urgency of the climate emergency?
With overwhelming public support for wind farms, where does the balance lie between visual effects on people and landscapes and the fact that climate change poses the greatest threat to those very same people and landscapes?

UKRI’s road to net zero; Investing for impact

Sponsored by ScottishPower and the Scottish Government

Climate change and the climate emergency are with us. In 2019, the UK Government and the devolved administrations committed to the Net Zero target as recommended by the Committee on Climate Change. Reaching net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions requires extensive changes across the economy, but the foundations are in place. 

Major infrastructure decisions need to be made in the near future and quickly implemented. These changes are unprecedented in their overall scale, but large-scale transitions have been achieved successfully in the UK before, such as the natural gas switchover in the 1970s or the switch to digital broadcasting in the 2000s.

How are we charting the path to net zero? With a year to go, what are our hopes and aspirations for next November’s UN climate summit in Glasgow (COP26)? How can we truly shift the dial? Our panelists will certainly give us food for thought as they consider both topics, indeed UK domestic climate ambition can be the basis for UK international leadership in 2021 in the Presidency of OP26 and in the G7 Presidency.

The Path to Net Zero and COP26

Sponsored by Ørsted and ScottishPower 

How do countries win the race to deliver hydrogen and jobs at scale?
One of our first webinars, masterminded by Matthew Knight, Head of Business Development at Siemens Energy, was our original ‘Speed and Scale’. As he explained in June: “To deliver net zero by 2050, with expected growth, we must completely replace the world’s energy system of today with something twice the size and greenhouse gas-free during the next 30 years. Energy numbers are big. Mega and Giga will not be enough. We must get to Tera and fast, we have less than 1 billion seconds to do it.” 
 
We’ve taken this original idea and asked him and his panel to look specifically at hydrogen as it soars up the energy agenda. In early September a report released by the Offshore Wind Industry Council (OWIC) and the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult said the UK has the right nexus of factors - a strong industrial base, world-leading academic research, and offshore wind capacity potential – to produce low cost, sustainable hydrogen without CO2 emissions from water electrolysis. How do other sectors see it?
 
We’ll explore policy/strategy, the manufacture of hydrogen, the offshore wind sector’s aspirations, onshore wind, transport, and more...... And look forward to your comments and questions too.

What does The Green Recovery mean to your organisation – and to you personally?

it is imperative that choices in the coming months steer a recovery that drives vital new economic activity, accelerates our transition to net zero, and strengthens our resilience to the impacts of climate change after the pandemic wanes. It is vital to foster green structural transformation cutting CO2 emissions, as well as boosting our national and regional economies and, not slip back into the ‘old normal’ which will exacerbate irreversible climate change, biodiversity loss, and other environmental risks.

From government to industry, academia to members of the public who took part in the UK Climate Assembly (more of that in tomorrow morning’s opening webinar) all agree that a green recovery is essential.

We have asked our speakers, who between them represent government; a major utility; the jobs market – and skills; engineers; the energy economy; and a major city, what it means to them, and how they see the Green Recovery taking place.

The Green Recovery

In 2020, the UK is leading the world in the development of wave and tidal technologies based on our engineering prowess and excellent natural ocean resources. The IEA forecast that the global ocean energy industry will be worth £76 billion by 2050. Here in the UK, our tidal stream industry could generate a net cumulative benefit to the UK by of £1.4bn by 2020, including considerable exports and the creation of 4,000 jobs. Wave energy, which is at an earlier stage of development, has the potential to add a net positive contribution to the UK economy worth a cumulative benefit of £4.0bn and create 8,100 jobs by 2040.

Both tidal stream and wave energy have the potential to generate high quality, highly skilled jobs across the UK in maritime and peripheral regions including supply chain and local economic benefits. Hear from leading technology developers and Government on how we can secure this opportunity and support the growth of marine energy to help us reach Net Zero, grow our economy and ensure we deliver on our blue economy aspirations.

Corporate PPAs: Broadening the discussion

The report from the Energy Integration Project, recently published by the Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) in collaboration with Ofgem, The Crown Estate, BEIS and Crown Estate Scotland, has highlighted that the UKCS basin is a critical energy resource for the UK, both today and for a net zero future.

Leveraging cross-sector energy solutions (oil and gas electrification, wind power, hydrogen, and carbon capture and storage) could potentially support the delivery of ~30% of the country’s overall net zero target. When you add the potential contribution of offshore renewables, the UKCS could support as much as 60% of the whole UK’s abatement required by 2050.

How can this potential become a reality, and how can projects be accelerated?
Today we discuss what can be done in the near term to cut emissions in the UKCS, including through platform electrification, and also the collaboration with the wind power sector. Following this, we look at how oil and gas capabilities and infrastructure can be harnessed to support further renewables expansion and inject pace into CCS and hydrogen.

Finance & Funding: Once in a lifetime challenges

Sponsored by ScottishPower

The bubble of excitement around the potential benefits from an emerging hydrogen sector is ever increasing. With more than £350m capital grant funding expected to be unleashed by both the UK’s Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and the Scottish Government in coming months, the bubble of excitement will quickly have to move to real projects..

The hydrogen supply and demand ecosystem can benefit greatly from the clustering of demand across multiple users and therefore this session focuses on example clusters coming to reality across the UK. Initial phases of these projects may be centred around an immediate customer and use, but each region can highlight a vast and ambitious vision that will greatly impact the nation’s Net Zero goals.

However, in order to deliver these ambitious projects, the longer-term market dynamics will be critical and forecasting in an emerging market can greatly influence imminent investment decisions. The role of supply chain growth and ambitions of major industrial organisations is a foundation for clean sector jobs, economic value, and hydrogen economy growth across the UK and beyond.

Hear our panel discuss real projects underway which will lay the groundwork for regional transformation as well as the influence of the larger market-shaping factors of the hydrogen economy into the next decade. Bring your searching questions to the session to help stimulate even more discussion and debate.
