In the context of a climate emergency and mounting pressure to change radically and quickly, energy networks companies are re-evaluating their remit and role in decarbonisation, not only for energy, but also in the wider social context.
The scale of this challenge is leading to a debate as to whether the current market and regulatory structures are fit for purpose to deliver decarbonisation and a just transition – and radical proposals such as the Labour Party’s plans to renationalise the networks.
We would like to invite you to the launch of a paper, published by Regen and supported by SP Energy Networks, which examines the changing role of the networks, assesses the current industry model and explores a number of future, alternative regulatory approaches.
Speakers include:
Scott Mathieson, network planning and regulation director, SP Energy Networks
Johnny Gowdy, director, Regen
Madeleine Greenhalgh, policy lead, Regen
Christine Darbyshire, senior development manager (environment), Liverpool City Council
