Flexibility & Grid 2026
#RUKFG26
The UK's energy landscape is undergoing an unprecedented transformation, with renewables supplying ever-more of our electricity. At the same time, demand for electricity will grow as transport, heat and industry move away from fossil fuels.
New for 2026, this conference-led event built on the success of our Future Energy System, Green Hydrogen and Clean Power Grid conferences, and examines the UK's whole energy system transition and all the technologies underpinning it. We brought together the organisations delivering the electricity network and those developing the storage, hydrogen and flexibility solutions that will run across it.
