The conference will bring together senior representatives from British and European regulators, energy networks and policy makers, and will take place at ENA’s offices in London (4 More London Riverside, London SE1 2AU), conveniently located near London Bridge. 
The event seeks to bring further alignment between British and European networks, and identify opportunities for collaboration and drive decarbonisation. In addition to keynote presentations, the conference will include roundtable discussions on key topics such as grid expansion, financing, digitalisation, and workforce and supply chain issues.

The event will be an important forum for networking, with a welcome lunch and networking drinks reception on October 23rd, and a closing networking lunch on October 24th.
