Leaders from government, industry and cutting-edge research gathered in South Yorkshire for a landmark summit showcasing the region’s pivotal role in the nation’s journey to becoming a clean energy superpower.
Hundreds of delegates from across South Yorkshire and beyond joined the UK Clean Energy Summit 2025, hosted by AIRTO member University of Sheffield and its Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC), at the Magna Science Adventure Centre in Rotherham on 12 September.
With the Summit focussed on accelerating the journey to net-zero while capitalising on clean energy’s potential to boost the economy, create jobs and attract investment, Secretary of State for Energy, Security and Net Zero Ed Miliband set the tone with a special video message:
My single most important message is that I accept your invitation to work with you to seize the huge opportunities clean energy presents in South Yorkshire, and indeed our country as a whole. Our mission to make Britain a clean energy superpower is about delivering energy security, lower bills and the good jobs and growth that we know people want, and protecting our home for our children and grandchildren.
