Keynote Address
Gaynor Hartnell (confirmed)
Chief Executive, Renewable Energy Association
“The Renewable Heat Incentive: what it means for the public sector”
The Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) will provide support for those who install renewable heating. With a rate of return of up to 12%, there is great potential for public sector organisations to generate additional income. Understanding the opportunities offered by programmes such as the RHI and the Feed-In Tariff (FIT) is vitally important during this time of austerity.

Paul O'Brien (confirmed)
Chief Executive, Association for Public Service Excellence
“How councils can use the green agenda to generate renewable energy and cash”
With considerable pressure on resources, there may be some reluctance to invest in renewables. However, Research by the Association for Public Service Excellence (APSE) shows that renewable energy not only pays for itself, but can create a "revolving fund" to reinvest in further energy saving measures.

Director of Local Delivery, Energy Saving Trust
“Making renewables incentives work for you”
The various government incentives represent a real opportunity for public bodies to create environmental benefit, coupled with a range of economic benefits. In addition to carbon emissions reduction, the installation of renewable energy can create local jobs, reduce fuel poverty and contribute to the local economy.

“Fairer funding for London”
To date, London has received a disproportionately low share of the funding available to support energy efficiency and renewable energy retro-fitting projects. Understanding the opportunities offered by programmes such as CERT, CESP, RHI and FIT will be essential in readdressing the situation.
