Glasgow: The 2025 Distribution Connections Summit – Where Your Project Meets Progress

We’re inviting you to a room full of answers.

Our 2025 Distribution Connections Summit is designed for one purpose: to help you make smarter, faster, and more informed decisions about connecting to our network. Whether you’re managing a project, navigating reforms, or exploring new opportunities in the evolving energy landscape—this is where you need to be.

Why should you come?

Because the game is changing—and fast. Ofgem’s decisions, Clean Power 2030, Connections Reform, and RIIO-ED3 are reshaping how, when, and where connections happen. We’re bringing clarity to the table—so you don’t have to guess or go it alone.

You’ll hear directly from our senior leaders and technical teams about:

• Connections Reform – What’s changed, what’s coming, and how it affects your project

• Clean Power 2030 – Understand technology caps, constraints, and how to plan around them

• Transmission Impact – How upstream changes affect your downstream timelines

• RIIO-ED3 Planning – Get a say in shaping our next investment cycle

• Flexibility Services – Learn how your project can generate revenue and support grid stability

• Real Projects, Real Progress – Our Delivery Team will share updates on active, high-impact work

This isn’t just a sit-and-listen session. You’ll get the chance to ask direct questions, raise project-specific issues, and engage with the people who can help move things forward. No vague answers—just a straight line to the right people.

Join us at this in person event and expect insightful sessions, valuable networking, and expert support tailored to your connection journey.
