GHD Future Energy @ Energy LIVE 2024

 

The global energy sector is transforming at pace. The way we make, move, store and use energy is quickly – and irrevocably – changing.  
 
In the global pursuit of net zero by mid-century, one compelling vision has taken centre stage: Electrify Everything. This ambitious mantra envisions a future where renewable-powered electricity replaces fossil fuels across critical sectors, from transportation and industry to residential heating and cooling. Yet, while electrification is undeniably a key pillar of the net-zero strategy, it also presents complex challenges. 
 
At Energy LIVE, GHD will explore how to electrify our energy systems responsibly and effectively, aligning short-term actions with long-term sustainability goals. Learn from our industry leaders about the pioneering strategies that are propelling projects forward, meeting climate goals, and transforming energy infrastructure for a sustainable future.  GHD Future Energy offers a global service that blends local expertise with cutting-edge knowledge, delivering tailored solutions to tackle some of the world's biggest energy challenges. With our team of experts, we’re driving innovation and making a lasting impact on the energy transition - one project at a time.
