Thank you to everyone who attended the 2025 Energy & Utility Skills Conference and Awards
Our event was dedicated to sharing knowledge, collaboration and excellence in the energy and utilities industries. With so much change ahead of us, this conference has a specific focus on skills and jobs around the green agenda and net zero.
Immerse yourself in engaging conference sessions covering industry-wide topics and expert panel discussions. Listen to key speakers and take advantage of the opportunity to network with industry leaders.
The day concludes with an evening dinner and awards ceremony featuring a celebrity host to celebrate individuals and organisations shaping the future of the industry.
It was great to see so many people in one room to discuss the sector’s future growth, key skills opportunities and challenges, political landscape, sector attraction and to celebrate the outstanding individuals and organisations that are shaping the future of the industry.
Thank you to our keynote speaker, the Rt Hon Baroness Smith of Malvern, Minister of State for Skills, who reiterated the government’s commitment to supporting workforce development across these essential industries.
During the conference, our Group Chief Executive, Paul Cox, launched our 2025 – 2030 Skills Strategy. You can access the full strategy here.
The strategy’s focus is clear: to ensure the UK has the skilled people it needs to meet the current demands and future growth ambitions of the energy, water, and waste industries. ‘Skills to deliver the UK’s future’ is a commitment to building the talent and capabilities that will deliver for our economy, protect our environment and support communities nationwide.
