Addressing the future of the energy debate

Directors and senior managers charged with addressing energy costs at board level will have access to some of the world's foremost experts at The Energy Insight conference

This free-to-attend conference takes place on the 10th and 11th September 2008 at The National Motorcycle Museum, Birmingham and covers energy procurement, supply security, risk management, CSR and energy management.

Among the experts speaking at the conference is Jens Boening, MD of WeatherBill UK.

Formerly VP of Merrill Lynch Commodities Europe, where he was head of weather derivatives structuring and origination for all non-US markets, Jens will speak on the subject of Weather Derivatives and how businesses can protect revenue and control costs from the impact of 'bad' weather.

Also speaking, on the subject of Commodity Risk Management, is Mark Dickinson the founder of leading energy risk management company Encore International.

Recognised as one of the leading authorities on energy risk management, Mark sits on the risk committees of several UK companies, and will discuss how it is possible to protect budgets and reduce risk without losing the opportunity price swings can bring.

The programme of speakers at Energy Insight aims to address the future of the energy debate, for example, David Porter OBE, CEO of the Association of Electricity Producers, will be speaking about the Security of Supply, while Alan Aldridge, Executive Director of ESTA (Energy Services and Technology Association) delivers a speech on Day Two about the extremely topical Carbon Reduction Commitment.

Almost a case in point about the forward looking nature of the conference is the Energy Scenarios to 2050 paper to be given by Mike Hogg, general manager of Shell Gas Direct, on Day Two also.

The full programme of speakers is now available to view online.

To ensure a place, delegates planning to attend Energy Insight must register in advance online.

Registered delegates will be provided with a full set of conference papers, lunch, and car parking.

Energy Insight is part of The Energy Event, sponsored by Total Gas and Power, the only annual UK exhibition and conference to focus on energy procurement, management and efficiency, including water efficiency.
