Open Forum - New Energy. A New Approach To Procurement And Delivery?

Our next King’s College London Centre of Construction Law & Dispute Resolution Open Forum will be held on the 8^th floor, Bush House, King's College Strand Campus, and will explore current developments in the procurement of new and renewable energy projects, focussing both on the UK and internationally.

Nuclear energy projects are moving towards a ‘Regulated Asset Based (RAB)’ procurement system, wind farms are being procured in innovative ways, hydrogen projects are being developed and nuclear fusion moves closer to reality. The commercial models for delivering these energy projects are developing rapidly and they offer us valuable lessons in procurement, contractual frameworks and risk management.

The conference chair will be Visiting Professor Nicholas Gould of Fenwick Elliott, and our eminent speakers will include:

• Steve Ovenden, EDF• Sarah Palmer, STEP Fusion UKAEA• Professor David Mosey, King’s College London• Edgar Baird Miller, Enel Green Power• Karoly Olajos, ITER Fusion• Jatinder Garcha, Fenwick Elliott• Sarah Hannaford KC, Keating Chambers• Ian Truman and Peter Ramsden,Burgess Salmon• Dr Roxana Vornicu, King’s College London• Dr. Leonardo Toledo Da Silva, Toledo Marchetti• David Streatfeild-James KC and Mark Chennells KC, Atkin Chambers• Christopher Bird, Risk Well.
