National Grid Release UK Winter Outlook
Britain will have enough power generation and imports through interconnectors to meet demand this winter, says National Grid in its 2017/18 winter outlook report released today.
For 30 years BIEE has provided a focal point for informed discussion and debate of key energy issues in the UK.

Will Gas Become The New Coal?
Whilst the possible peaking in coal demand is being trumpeted as a victory in the battle against climate change, the role of natural gas in the energy transition remains contentious. Will it continue to feature in changing sectors and markets around the world? Or will it be vilified like coal, as just another fossil fuel? We have several speakers who will consider different aspects of this debate, in Britain and more widely, considering both the short and the long-term. In addition, the seminar will also feature, as usual, the annual UK gas winter outlook.
Venue:Institute for Contemporary Arts,12 Carlton House Terrace, London SW1Y 5AH
Speaker(s):David Joffe, Committee on Climate Change, Adam Hawkes, Imperial College, Robert Ritz, Vivid Economics, Marco Serafini, Shell, Simon Durk, National Grid
