The second Transport + Energy Forum, 16 November at Birmingham Conference and Events Centre takes the theme of working further and faster to accelerate the transition to decarbonisation, bringing together over 200 transport and energy leaders with a stellar line up of more than 20 speakers.

Keynotes from Chris Skidmore MP and clean air campaigner Rosamund Adoo-Kissi-Debrah will be followed by Lizzie Culwick, Deputy Head of OZEV and Cordi O’Hara, President of National Grid Electricity Distribution (NGED).

The packed agenda will feature 18 sessions, including presentations, TED style talks, panel discussions and networking to ensure variety and inspiration and to maximise collaboration opportunities.

The event’s sponsors and partners include National Grid, Char.gy, Trojan Energy, ElectriX, The AA, Fastned, Meel Group in association with EV Civils & Solutions, SWARCO, Motability Operations and Direct Line Group. Alongside the sponsors, the event also has the support of nine organisations, including Transport Technology Forum.

Attendees will include industry professionals from a wide range of organisations, from government decision makers, to consultancies, construction and engineering companies, through to transport planners, vehicle manufacturers and technology innovators.

The Forum has a special focus for delegates from local authorities, who can apply for fully funded places. Of particular interest will be sessions on the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund, how to take action over clean air zones and insight on collaboration with charge point operators.

The one day Forum will be followed by an evening networking dinner, hosting the first ever Transport + Energy Awards.
