Abstract
Our energy systems have been developed by government and industry over a number of decades with key decisions being made from the top-down over its future operation, delivering great benefits to consumers over a long period of time.
However with the need to decarbonise our energy system being ever more present, consumer voice and consumer choice now play a prominent role in shaping the market, products and services available and may allow the customer to finally be king.
The IET President’s Address 2017 highlights how the challenges these changes will bring will provide exciting opportunities for our engineers working in the energy sector as the industry must learn to innovate quickly in new products and services, invest in infrastructure and to continually integrate a complex and fast-moving energy system.
The IET has again partnered with ITN Productions partners to produce an online programme exploring the challenges, achievements and future of the sector.
The IET works vigorously to inspire, inform and influence members, engineers and technicians and this is brought to life through the programme.
The 2017 programme will be launched at the IET President’s Address and form part of an extensive communications campaign featuring IET members, industry partners, government partners, as well as relevant journalists, writers and bloggers.
