Welcome to the Infrastructure Forum at Innovation Zero World, a pivotal platform for addressing the complexities of a green infrastructure transformation.
We will unpack the pressing challenge of developing low carbon infrastructure to support the net zero transition, and the billions of pounds worth of investment required over the coming years. Speakers will discuss energy, transport, utilities and network infrastructure across all forums as we tackle the dual issues of climate mitigation and adaptation.
The Infrastructure Forum at Innovation Zero World 2025 will examine the foundational role of infrastructure in achieving net-zero targets. Featuring keynotes, panels, and showcases, this forum will address the challenges and opportunities of delivering sustainable infrastructure projects that support climate resilience and economic growth.
Key Themes and Topics:
1. Delivering Clean Power Infrastructure by 2030: This session will highlight the urgent need to upgrade the UK’s energy infrastructure to meet decarbonisation targets. Discussions will focus on overcoming investment, planning, and regulatory barriers, with insights from industry leaders and policymakers.
2. Building an Attractive Infrastructure Market: Panellists will explore how governments can use regulation and policy incentives to attract private sector investment in new infrastructure projects, accelerating progress toward net-zero goals.
3. Rethinking Infrastructure Value: This session will discuss innovative strategies to integrate social and environmental considerations into infrastructure planning and design, ensuring a just and inclusive transition to net zero.
4. Harnessing Data for Infrastructure Resilience: Experts will examine how data-driven approaches can optimise infrastructure systems, enhancing their ability to adapt to climate change and deliver better outcomes for society.
5. Water Infrastructure Innovation: Discussions will centre on modernising water systems to improve resilience against climate impacts, with a focus on technology, partnerships, and policy solutions.
6. Ports as Catalysts for the Clean Energy Shift: This session will explore the potential of ports to become hubs for clean energy generation and distribution, driving decarbonisation across the maritime sector and beyond.
