BOOK NOW | Energy & Power
Hear from senior figures in property and the energy industry on how we should navigate power demands, the projects that will transform how we generate electricity, and on how the sector can drive the Northern economy.
In today’s power-hungry world, access to energy has become paramount. What does issues around supply mean for development and how are canny consultants circumventing those problems? And with the energy sector itself due to become a major economic drive in the North, how do we align industry wants with placemaking needs?
Place North’s Energy & Power conference will look into both aspects of the energy question. The event will be held at Bridgewater Hall in Manchester on 17 September, starting from 8am with a networking breakfast and concluding with a lunch at noon.
The event is sponsored by Cundall, Bethell, and Unify Energy.
