Event Details

LCP Delta's New Energy Summit

This year’s New Energy Summit brings together energy leaders and innovators to explore the future of residential energy with a focus on heat, solar, EVs, batteries, home energy management, networks and flexibility.

Across panels, breakout rooms and keynote sessions, we’ll explore three key questions shaping the residential energy landscape:

Think heat pumps, EV chargers, batteries and more. We’ll look at how to create compelling propositions, understand what customers want, and identify the best routes to market. Expect practical insights for OEMs, retailers and anyone working to grow residential energy uptake.

What strategic moves should companies be making now to unlock the value of flexibility? And how do we make it meaningful for customers? We'll explore when resi-flex becomes a commercial reality and what it will take to scale.

As we head toward 2030, how should energy retailers evolve? We'll explore the role of tariffs, financing and competition for the customer in a changing landscape.

Add to that networking opportunities, a proper Scottish dinner with a Ceilidh and plenty of time to connect with industry experts, this is an event you won't want to miss.
