Clean Energy and Net Zero Advanced Engineering 2026
The Clean Energy and Net Zero track at Advanced Engineering brings together engineers, buyers and manufacturers tackling decarbonisation in practice. See how other organisations are actually cutting emissions and energy use, and what that means for your products, processes and investments, in a market where net zero deadlines, energy security and customer expectations are all colliding with budget scrutiny and geopolitical uncertainty.
This track brings together honest, cross-sector examples of what is actually working, from quick energy efficiency wins to longer-term electrification and alternative fuel strategies, so you can benchmark against others at the design and development stage and take home a plan that stands up to scrutiny.
The UK rail industry is at a critical stage. Ambitious plans for high‑speed routes and regional connectivity promise to
