Energy Sponsor Logo StackedHow to maximise development opportunities arising from energy projects across the North will be the focus of this sector briefing in Cumbria, organised by Place North West in association with Curtins and Furness Economic Development Forum.

Exploiting the property potential offered by nuclear, fracking, on-shore and off-shore renewable power generation as well as redeveloping legacy sites such as former oil plants will all feature on the agenda. The event is aimed not only at companies interested in building energy facilities but also those people wishing to tap into the residential and commercial potential of housing workers and supplying new premises for supply chains.
