Event details:

The Energy Institute South Western and South Wales Branch is supporting the University of Bath's I-SEE webinar on Delivering Climate Action: challenges and opportunities to implement 2030 climate commitments.

Professor Tim Mays will host a fireside chat with guest speaker Rt Hon Chris Skidmore OBE.

Chris Skidmore will be speaking on the future of net zero and the UK’s commitment to deliver on its climate targets, where future focus needs to be on international climate approaches and his work to deliver net zero outside of politics, through establishing the Climate Action Coalition and Desmos Capital. 

Speakers:

Chris Skidmore was the UK Energy Minister attending Cabinet responsible for signing the UK’s net zero commitment into law— becoming the first G7 country to do so. He also helped secure the UK’s Presidency of COP26. In 2022, Chris was appointed by the UK Government to chair the Net Zero Review which was the largest engagement exercise on net zero in the UK, engaging with over 2,800 businesses. For his work, in 2023, Chris was awarded Politician of the Year at the UK Green Business Awards, and Political Figure of the Year at the British Renewable Energy Awards 2023.
