Foresight Energy Summit 2027

A senior-level conference examining the projects, technologies, investment and partnerships shaping the future energy system.

Modernising the energy system

The energy system is entering a period of profound change. Rising power demand, network constraints, energy security, decarbonisation and new industrial opportunities are reshaping how energy is generated, financed, distributed and used.

Foresight Energy Summit brings together leaders from across power generation, infrastructure, industry, technology and investment to examine the projects and partnerships at the forefront of this transformation.

The summit will look beyond individual technologies to consider how a more connected energy system can unlock investment, strengthen manufacturing, create skilled employment and support long-term infrastructure and industrial growth.

A defining industrial opportunity

Modernising energy infrastructure is not simply a response to climate targets or increasing electricity demand. It represents a significant opportunity to build new industries, commercialise emerging technologies and strengthen the UK’s position within global energy markets.

Realising that opportunity will require closer alignment between energy producers, infrastructure developers, industrial users, investors, policymakers, technology providers and supply chains.

Foresight Energy Summit provides a focused environment in which those organisations can examine the market, understand emerging projects and develop the relationships required to move opportunities forward.
