Renewable Energy in the Public Sector
Date: 23.3.2011
The Barbican, London, 23rd June 2011
The public sector has great potential as an energy generator. Installation of renewables can help in addressing fuel poverty, assist in securing the country's energy supply for the future, and provide a steady source of revenue at the same time, with good rates of return. With some 10% of the UK's land owned by the public sector, this is a time of considerable opportunity. Insights gained from this conference will support public sector organisations in maximising the benefit of this opportunity.
In the recent 'Local growth' white paper, the government emphasised its commitment to delivering a huge expansion of renewable energy over the next 10 years. With the launch of the Green Investment Bank hotly anticipated, and an energy white paper expected in the spring, there is a great deal to be discussed by the programme of excellent speakers at Renewable Energy in the Public Sector: understanding opportunities.
Invited speakers include:
Rt Hon Chris Huhne MP - Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change
Sara Parkin - Founding Director, Forum for the Future (confirmed)
Abigail Burridge - Senior Policy Officer, LG Group Environment and Housing Programme Board (confirmed)
John Thorp - Group Managing Director, Thameswey (confirmed)
Barbara Hammond - Chair, West Oxford Community Renewables (confirmed)
Bill Dickson - Energy Manager, Princess Alexandra Hospital
