SP Energy Networks at All Energy 2024

25/04/2024

All Energy 2024All-Energy is the UK’s largest low carbon energy and full supply chain renewables event. This year’s event is taking place at SEC, Glasgow on 15-16 May 2024. We are pleased to showcase a number of SP Energy Networks colleagues who are speaking at the event and taking part in panel discussions with industry colleagues.  

Following the Opening Plenary Session, Guy Jefferson, Chief Operating Officer, SP Energy Networks, will be participating in ‘Maps, Money and Multiple Benefits: City Scale Decarbonisation’. This session will discuss the role cities play in world energy consumption and CO2 emissions, and their crucial role in economic development. At SP Energy Networks, sustainability is central to everything that we do. In 2023 we published our first Just Transition Strategy and we recently shared our latest Sustainable Business Strategy. Find out more about our vision for a sustainable network.  

In the afternoon, Jillian Violaris, Funding and Partnerships Manager, SP Energy Networks, will be taking part in a session looking at ‘Community Benefits for Transmission Infrastructure’. As a network operator, we play a key role in enabling the transition to a cleaner, greener future. To ensure no one is left behind in the race to Net Zero, we developed our community funds dedicated to supporting our communities and their low carbon ambitions which aligns to our Just Transition Strategy. We have started to look at how we utilise the work that we have already undertaken in this area and align our Community Benefit Funding proposals with our stakeholder needs.   

Also in the afternoon, Gareth Hislop, Head of Market Development and Commercial Operations, SP Energy Networks, will be participating in ‘Connections, Connections, Connections’. At SP Energy Networks it’s our job to keep the electricity flowing in Central and Southern Scotland, Cheshire, Merseyside, North Wales and North Shropshire. We’re also responsible for ensuring properties are connected to the electricity network safely and as quickly as possible. A host of information on ‘Getting Connected’ is available on our website. Readers may also be interested in registering for the ‘Transmission Connections Summit’ in Glasgow on 30 May 2024.  

On Thursday 16 May, Scott Mathieson, Director of Network Planning and Regulation, SP Energy Networks, will be participating in a session looking at the progress made on the strategic transmission infrastructure projects following the publication of the Holistic Network Design (HND) in 2022.
