The UK energy sector stands at a critical juncture. The government is focused on decarbonisation, including Clean Power 2030, but energy transition projects face mounting challenges. This panel will examine the stark choices facing energy companies, investors, and policymakers.    How can the UK navigate between maintaining energy security and achieving net zero ambitions? What policy interventions could unlock stalled projects? Can traditional energy companies pivot successfully to renewables, or is this work better suited to new energy specialists?    Join industry leaders as they debate the path forward in this pivotal moment for UK energy.
