During his opening remarks at The Foresight Event 2026 , Bill Esterson MP, Chair of the Energy Security and Net Zero Select Committee, argued that the UK’s energy transition must now move decisively from ambition to delivery. He stressed the need for a sharp focus on reducing system costs, strengthening energy security, and providing long-term policy certainty to unlock sustained investment. Bill Esterson MP, Chair of the Net Zero Committee, UK Parliament Mr Esterson noted th

On 4-5 February 2026, more than 450 senior leaders from across the UK energy, industrial, infrastructure, finance, and digital sectors convened in Liverpool for The Foresight Event 2026 : the UK’s leading industry-specific energy conferences dedicated to delivery, investment, and system-wide transformation of the energy sector. Across two days of strategic keynotes, in-depth panels, and cross-sector dialogue, The Foresight Event brought together over 25 exhibitors and sponsor

Steel sits at the heart of the modern economy. It underpins renewable energy infrastructure, transport systems, housing, electricity grids and manufacturing. Yet it is also responsible for around 7–8% of global CO₂ emissions , making it one of the most emissions-intensive sectors in the net zero transition. This challenge was the focus of the Foresight webinar Forging a Sustainable Future: Decarbonising Global Steel for Net Zero , which brought together voices from across the

As the UK energy sector races toward Net Zero, it faces many challenges, yet it is encountering a massive acceleration in technology—specifically the convergence of Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Computing. The challenges facing today’s grid are unlike anything seen before. The UK is transitioning from a centralised system to a highly decentralised network integrating intermittent renewables, electric vehicles, storage, and real-time market dynamics. This shift brings ex

The Government has confirmed a major expansion of the UK's nuclear capacity as the centrepiece of the Autumn Budget's energy package, marking a decisive step towards energy independence and the Net Zero 2050 target. Notably, there was confirmation that the Wylfa site in North Wales has been officially designated as the location for the UK's first fleet of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), a move designed to revitalise the nation's industrial base and provide long-term energy sec

Our most recent Foresight webinar focused on fusion energy, and explored not only the accelerating progress of the UK fusion sector but, more importantly, the breadth of industries that fusion is poised to transform. Fusion energy, long seen as a vital element in the clean energy transition, is certainly central to the UK's Net Zero 2030 targets. However, this session highlighted a more expansive role for fusion. Its impact is already being felt today across multiple sectors,
