Enova Community Energy recently hosted a packed-out event at the Byron Theatre, inspired by the positive changes coming our way and, in some cases, already starting to disrupt the energy industry as we know it.

The panel members discussed microgrids, solar gardens, peer-to-peer trading, regulatory reforms and places in the world that are achieving world-leading emissions reduction targets.

Unanimously the panel expressed excitement about the future and the potential for new technologies that are bringing a decentralised, decarbonised economy into play.

We hope you enjoy this production of a fantastic event, full of inspiring content for a positive, connected, clean energy future. Please feel free to share it far and wide.
