The Scottish APSE Energy Summit 2023

View the agenda 

The Scottish APSE Energy Summit is back and the aim of the event is to ensure officers and councillors from local authorities have the chance to keep up to date with a vast agenda. Discussion sessions, speakers and partners will cover a range of issues and the informal element of the event means that delegates have the chance to discuss amongst themselves.

The Summit is a real chance to re-engage with the sector and catch up on what is happening across the climate change, energy and sustainability agenda in terms of government initiatives, case studies, good practice and market trends.
