Energy security and energy transition — How can the UK achieve both?

Can the UK have energy security and deliver the energy transition — or does one have to give?

It’s the question shaping boardrooms, ministerial briefings, and household bills. On Thursday, 11 June, a panel of leaders from across the UK energy ecosystem will put it to the test.

Energy security and energy transition – How can the UK achieve both?‘ will be hosted at Accenture’s London office, in partnership with the Energy Institute Young Professionals Network and SPE London Section.

On the panel:

  • Professor Martin J Blunt — Professor at Imperial College London, Chief Scientist at iRock Technologies, and Chief of Engineering at Terra Altai
  • Matei Negrescu — Vice President, Power Strategy at Equinor
  • Karly Wai — Managing Director, Energy and Metals & Mining at Accenture

Opened by Tarjei Skaar and moderated by Hani Hamoud (Accenture), the discussion will cut through the geopolitics, economics and trade-offs — followed by drinks, nibbles and networking with senior and emerging talent across the UK energy sector.

📅 Thursday, 11 June 2026, 18:00 – 20:00
