Accounting for half of UK energy demand, affordable heat is vital for industry and householders alike.
Heat is too often the Cinderella of the energy debate, but its central role makes it a key consideration if we are to meet our decarbonisation commitments.

Now is its second year, Heat 2013 is the UK's only heat-specific energy conference and has been established as the place to debate and explore all aspects of heat.

Organised by the Energy Institute and CHPA, Heat 2013 will bring together government policy makers and industry leaders from DECC, National Grid, the Green Investment Bank, Mitsubishi Electric and E.ON. These thought leaders will explore how we can deliver on the potential for affordable, low carbon heat set out in the Government's 2013 Heat Strategy.

Join the debate on Wednesday 27 November as four major themes are considered:

· How do we put consumers at the centre of the low carbon heat transformation?
· How can we ensure affordable heat for industry, businesses and householders?
· How can we achieve vital heat infrastructure investment? What do investors need?
· What benefits are available by bringing local and central government, industry and householders together in partnerships?
