About the session

The conflict within Ukraine serves as a stark reminder of the impact that geopolitical relations have on energy cost and supply. The global covid pandemic has also profoundly changed the way we work. Society is reliant on a secure energy supply that is clean, fair, and affordable but in an uncertain world, this will only be achieved by building more resilience into our organisations and networks.

This plenary will explore a whole of community approach to achieving resilience in the energy systems of the future, and will discuss how we can break down organisational silos beyond the energy industry.

We have seen more extreme weather events, such as the Christmas storms in Buffalo US, as the impact of climate change becomes evident. This session will showcase a systemic approach for assessing the impact of climate change, enabling the action needed to adapt our networks for the future.
