ALL-ENERGY & DCARBONISE 2020 WEBINAR SERIES REVIEW

Organised by: Sponsors and partners: 2 WEBINAR SERIES HIGHLIGHTS 26 Webinars and counting Countless insights on delivering net zero

We created the All-Energy and Dcarbonise webinar series with one thing in mind: supporting the renewable and low carbon energy community during a time of unprecedented challenge. We launched the webinar series with four webinars on what would have been the original dates of the All-Energy & Dcarbonise 2020 event – the 13 and 14 May. We rapidly found the level of support and participation was outstanding. Capitalising on that success, we now host monthly webinars on the hottest low carbon and renewables topics, including offshore and onshore wind, hydrogen, inclusive transition, community and local energy, solar energy and more. We ramped up the volume in November by holding the All-Energy & Dcarbonise Virtual Summit, which comprised eight webinars over three days, with stellar speakers including Rt Hon Nicolar Sturgeon MSP and Paul Wheelhouse MSP. We have more webinars in the pipeline, so stay tuned!
