A series of presentations and panels discussing key challenges in the wind sector, planning, grid and markets, and the introduction of the Small RESS scheme for communities and SMEs are on the agenda for the conference.

Between sessions, connect with an influential network of professionals, policymakers and industry leaders to drive valuable partnerships and share ideas and expertise that will drive progress in the renewable energy industry. Discover new technologies, solutions and services that are revolutionising the onshore wind landscape.
