For too long, extortionate electricity bills have been a huge problem for households across the UK. While targeted financial support has a role to play, the choices made now can either entrench reliance on fossil fuels or accelerate the shift away from them.

Join Nesta’s sustainable future mission at the Liberal Democrat Party Conference for a discussion on the most effective ways to keep bills permanently low. This session will explore how to transition our homes away from fossil fuels and towards clean, cheap power.

Our panel will examine the full range of levers available to make electricity cheaper, the trade-offs involved and how decisions made now could shape the resilience of household energy bills for years to come. Expert speakers will bring together perspectives from policy, industry and consumer advocacy to discuss the options on the table and what effective action could look like.

This event will take place on Sunday 20 September, 12:15-13:15 BST at Room 1A, Brighton Centre, located in the secure zone. Add to your calendar.
