Net Zero Week co-sponsored by EDF, includes live and exclusive webinars which feature many expert business leaders and authorities. In total you can access a dozen webinars featuring 45+ experts.

Founder and director, Shawn Coles said: “We have a real opportunity to make a big impact through activities that engage all types of businesses on both a practical and inspirational level. Net Zero Week will offer all business leaders and their teams a progressive set of exclusive and free-to-attend webinars that explore all things net zero from biogas to transport, but also high-level inspiration and policy matters for businesses keen to progress the net zero journey.”

Greg Clark MP, former energy secretary and ambassador for the week, said: “Climate change is the single greatest challenge facing mankind. The UK is leading the world in rising to this challenge and can take pride in being a nation that is not just showing ambition but one which holds a record to match. We all have a stake in this, and I applaud the efforts of individuals, organisations and initiatives like Net Zero Week in highlighting the importance of this vital work.”

To reach net zero, businesses will need to include all stakeholders and at all levels.  

So, with that in mind, organisers are inviting everyone to attend for free, especially if you run a business or work in a team that looks after; the estate, buildings, building services, transport, energy – and if you work across issues such as sustainability, energy, engineering, environment, and transport to mention just a few. All are welcome.
