A
NEW
HOPE?
RENEWABLE ENERGY
AND THE UK’S POWER
CRISIS
RENEWABLE ENERGY Why, with government ministers resorting
to phrases like “keeping the lights on”, does the UK still lag
behind Europe on renewable energy? The Carbon Trust expects
renewables to meet only 10 per cent of the UK’s power needs by
2020, perhaps 20 per cent at best – and the Renewable Energy
Association ranks the UK 25th out of 27 EU member states in its
contribution from renewables. Why so slow? What is being done
to improve things? What are the key projects that could make a
big difference? This session will gather views from top companies
across the low-carbon energy sector and ask the question: if not
now, then when?
CLINICAL
EXPERTISE

Take the digital medical sector, where the technological
advances in fields as diverse as video game development,
metrology and the automotive sector are being adapted to
improve processes and treatments in the sector. This will, in
turn, enable paramedics and doctors to analyse situations
much more quickly and save lives – can the UK exploit this
to become a world leader?
DAVID SHEPHERD ABLE UK
