The Agenda
WEDNESDAY 10 JUNE 2026
09:00 - 09:05
Introduction
Welcome
Introduction from the Editor of Electrical Review.
09:05 - 09:35
Keynote
Getting ready for an all-electric, data-hungry future
To meet our net zero goals, buildings are going to have to rely on electricity more than ever. Whether it’s electrified heat, on-site renewables, EV charging, or intelligent controls – electricity will be at the heart of modern buildings. In this keynote, we’ll explore how we can best design the electrical infrastructure in these buildings to ensure they’re flexible, ready for rising loads, and can meet ever-stringent standards.

The energy transition is accelerating, but how do we ensure that energy storage keeps pace with the increasing penetration of renewables? In this keynote, Andrew Crossland will take us on a journey from academic research to real-world implementation—exploring how early studies on energy storage integration, including his own PhD work, laid the foundation for today’s booming market.
Andrew will share insights from his pioneering research, which predicted the impact of residential energy storage and highlighted the financial benefits of a smarter grid. He will discuss lessons learned from modeling 9,000 low-voltage power networks in the UK, the economic case for subsidized storage, and policy recommendations that have shaped national energy strategy.

Session
Turning buildings into flexibility assets, not just loads
With the UK’s flexibility market now the largest in the world and DSOs procuring ever more local flexibility, commercial buildings are being asked to provide demand response, storage and even export. In this session, we’ll detail the rise in the ‘prosumer’ and how you can get involved.

Panel
How to be EV-ready when capacity is tight
Despite the naysayers, consumers and businesses alike are continuing to adopt electric vehicles in their tens of thousands each month. That growing adoption comes at a time when available capacity at many sites is already stretched – so how do we roll out EV charging infrastructure without overloading existing supplies? In this panel, our panellists will explore practical strategies to stay EV-ready under capacity constraints, from smart load management and phased rollouts to on-site generation, storage and early engagement with DSOs.

Session
Clearing the queue – engineering a connections regime that actually works
NESO’s pause on new grid connection applications, Ofgem’s tougher policies on “zombie” projects and the shift to “First Ready, First Connected” are reshaping how generation, storage and large loads get on the system. This keynote will unpack what that means in practice.
