organiser, Neb Saric, comments: “Tony Glover has wide experience and knowledge of the energy sector and its policy issues and key players. We are very grateful that he is taking time to present a paper and chair the Renewables element of the event. His paper is entitled ‘A Holistic approach to our energy system: the central role for the networks’.” Tony Glover expands on
the theme of his paper: “Often we think of electricity and gas solutions as distinct and a choice between each other. However, new renewable gas sources coupled with renewable generation can complement each other. “We can directly address
the key challenges of decarbonisation, storage, affordability and energy security through a holistic approach. With this approach we can also address other issues such as the decarbonisation of transport and waste management. Running through all of this is the vital role for gas and electricity networks.”

He is head of the Claverton Energy Think-Tank, one of the UK’s most influential energy policy analysis groups on the subject of Energy Policy and will be speaking at the ENERGY4POWERLIVE event.

Under the current, highly complex, network charging system, small generators enjoy certain benefits that are not enjoyed by bigger power plants – both by tapping extra revenues, and avoiding costs.
