Essex Energy Summit

Essex is fast becoming a catalyst for the UK’s energy transition.

With major infrastructure projects underway, from offshore wind farms to grid upgrades, the county is emerging as a national hub for energy generation, innovation, and inward investment.

To truly unlock the potential of this transformation, we must collaborate to ensure our local supply chain and workforce are ready to meet the challenge.

The Essex Energy Summit brings together energy developers, supply chain businesses, educators, policymakers, and strategic partners for a high-impact morning of insight, collaboration, and action.

Hosted by Essex County Council, this in-person event will celebrate Essex as a leader in energy, explore how we can coordinate across multiple energy projects, prepare Essex businesses to be tender-ready, and align skills provision with industry demand.

Whether you're a business looking to break into the energy sector, a training provider shaping the future workforce, or a policymaker driving strategic change, this summit is your opportunity to connect, contribute, and lead.

Confirm your space at the event today.
