About this event
Don’t miss out on EIC’s latest cluster series of events as we explore all the major industrial clusters across the UK, from Teesside to Southampton, bringing you the latest project updates, innovations and supply chain opportunities.
This August we are returning to Hull to host our annual Humber event, which will look at the regions remarkable achievements in moving towards net zero. The Humber, once one of the most heavily industrialised regions in the UK, is now leading the way in decarbonisation, quickly becoming one of the first regions in the UK to decarbonise and strive to achieve net zero by 2040. With this ambitious target, the focus on existing skills and infrastructure will continue to play a pivotal role in its success.
The Humber is considered a leader in the development of CCUS and Hydrogen, with over 20 projects underway this year alone. It is at the forefront of the energy revolution, leading the way in areas such as sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), solar energy and biomass.
Join us … to hear from key industry leaders from across the energy mix, find out the latest information on the projects happening across the Humber region, how they will assist with our overall UK decarbonisation goals and how the supply chain can get involved.
