Abstract
Electricity generation from renewable sources has increased by a factor of over five in the last decade and contributed 19% of total electricity in 2014. Wind generation continues to provide the largest contribution to the renewable total at 49.5% in 2014 with solar generation contributing only 6.3% but the fastest increasing source, having been almost zero in 2009. Can renewables provide an even greater share of our electricity needs over the coming years and if so at what cost and how do we need to adapt to make the most efficient use of them? This event is designed to provide answers to these questions.
