The Energy Act 2023 - The Key Reforms

Introduction

The Energy Act 2023 is widely considered to be one of the most important pieces of legislation in the past decade.

This new virtual classroom seminar is suitable for solicitors advising developers and large demand energy consumers and will guide you through the key reforms.

The Act seeks to modernise the regulatory framework for all energy networks, from gas to hydrogen and the various forms of electricity generation as well as the capture and storage of carbon dioxide.

The Government is keen to stress that this opens up new opportunities for businesses.
