Exploring our options and pathways to a low energy future
A conference for design and energy professionals, planners, business leaders and policy makers to explore our options and pathways to a low energy future. Rethinking Energy Use
Friday 21 April 2006
09.30-17.30
€100/€60
Exploring our options and pathways to a low energy future.
Supported by Comhar: The National Partnership for Sustainable Development
The implications of rising energy prices and our obligation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have brought us to a point where we now need to rethink how we use energy. If we act decisively this could mean a healthier, more fulfilled and ethical way of life that values efficiency, community and sustainability.
This conference will bring together policy makers, business and design leaders and people working in the energy sector to explore Ireland's options and pathways to a low energy future. Particular regard will be given to peak oil and climate change.
This event will explore how we can improve the energy performance of electrical and electronic goods, the manufacturing process and our buildings and the built environment. Energy efficiency is one of the cheapest and easiest ways to reduce demand. How we communicate this and what policy options are available to lower our energy use and emissions will also be discussed.
Combining analysis, conceptual frameworks and real-life case studies, this highly participative event moves beyond chalk-and-talk, to engage and challenge delegates to think through the implications and opportunities of higher energy prices.
Target Audience
Design professionals, business leaders, energy agencies, policy makers and anyone interested in responding positively to the challenges of Climate Change and Peak Oil.
Speakers include...
Frank Convery - Chair of COMHAR, Gerard O'Neil - Chief Executive of Amarach Consulting, Richard Douthwaite - Economist with FEASTA, Dorothy Maxwell - Director of the Environment Unit of Enterprise Ireland, Declan Meally - Head of Industry Sustainable Energy Ireland , Raymond McEvoy - Director of Manufacturing Excellence, Emer O'Siochru - Director of EOS Architects , Pauric Davis - Director of Davis Associates, Tomas O'Leary - Director MosArt, Dr David Fleming - UK Energy Consultant, and Eamon Ryan TD
