As a change to the usual single presentation the event was formed by having 3 speakers doing 10 minutes each. Feedback suggests this format went down very well.
Martin Fry took the floor next. He is well versed on the inner wheels of Brussels, Whitehall and beyond with a very wide plethora of documentation. Lots of acronyms to take in! The impression was that the domestic housing market could still offer up a lot of savings. The concept of people being paid not to use electricity is quite interesting, especially the newly coined word of negawatt.
There also was a very interesting short presentation from British Gas and how it is working with government and local authorities to promote energy saving e.g. boiler scrappage. Strangely the biggest challenge is spending all the money otherwise Centrica is fined 10% of its turnover!!As always there was a lively Q&A then more conversation of a networking natiure over a glass or two of wine.
