What steps can be taken to decarbonise electricity within a dramatically short timescale?
How will governments and business respond to continued policy uncertainty, post-Copenhagen?
In order to achieve significant emissions cuts, a rapid transformation in the way that power is used, generated and managed is required. This conference will take a clear look at the future of energy use, and the changing role that electricity will have in creating a low carbon future, focusing on:
- The prospects for energy sector investments in an uncertain policy environment
- How power systems - generation, networks, and user-technologies - will need to change in order to become less carbon intensive
- What new technologies are emerging and how quickly they can be developed to scale
- What constraints exist at a global level
- What political and policy challenges need to be addressed
