edie’s next webinar is scheduled for January and will hear from businesses on best-practice advice to investing in and integrating net-zero technologies to help assist with decarbonisation targets.

The net-zero technologies “learning from the leaders” webinar will take place on Thursday 21 January at 11am (GMT) and will run for one hour.

With businesses under pressure to minimise energy costs and improve resilience, this one-hour webinar will hear from the organisations that are utilising carbon-cutting technologies and systems on the road to net-zero emissions.

Energy costs are rising, clean technology costs are tumbling, and new off-grid energy opportunities are becoming more viable. What’s more, the UK Government recently unveiled its 10-Point Plan to push the UK towards net-zero carbon emissions.

Using real-experience case studies, this hour-long webinar will hear from some of the businesses that are deploying new technologies and solutions to accelerate their net-zero transition – from solar and wind to combined heat and power (CHP), ground-source heat pumps and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology.

Brought to you in association with Carbon Clean, this webinar will include a series of presentations followed by a live Q&A with our speakers.

Discussion points

• Assessing the viability of rooftop solar for your business
• Switching to low-carbon heat and electricity for listed buildings
• Delivering the net-zero factory of the future, today
• How carbon capture and storage can support your net-zero transition
