An invite-only summit for the people shaping the electrotech revolution

Tuesday, 23rd June 2026 | London, UK

Part of London Climate Action Week

The energy shocks of Ukraine and the Iran war have made one thing undeniable: energy security is a first-order political and economic concern. 

But for too long, the energy debate has been framed around an incumbent narrative of slow progress and insurmountable barriers.

The reality is that renewables and electrification are growing fast and now dominate new energy supply. We are at the beginning of a new industrial era defined by technology, not fuel.

Energy After Fire is a half-day, invite-only summit at London Climate Action Week, bringing together the builders, investors, and enablers of the electrotech revolution.

Programme

The programme revolves around expert provocations designed to spark meaningful debate, followed by facilitated discussion on topics including:

Building the era of electrotech

Where the opportunities are, who’s leading, and what comes next

Electrotech solutions are scaling rapidly across countries and sectors. Which areas represent the greatest opportunity, who is leading, and what comes next – are we on the cusp of a new era?

The Electro-World Order

How electrotech is reshaping energy security and defense, and creating new winners and losers

Energy shocks, cyber risks, defense tech, and supply chain upheaval  are placing energy security at the top of national agendas. How does electrotech help countries reduce vulnerability and gain independence? How can incumbents and disruptors prepare for the new energy order? 

A New Day for Europe

How Europe can harness electrotech to escape fossil dependence, regain sovereignty and catalyse growth

Nearly 60 percent of Europe’s energy comes from fossil fuel imports, and it is very vulnerable to high electricity prices and global supply shocks. At the same time, Europe has an opportunity to harness its leading electrotech companies and regions to chart a new path forward.  How can electrotech help Europe escape its fossil dependency, regain sovereignty, and catalyse growth?

From Emerging Markets to Global Leaders

Why developing economies are outpacing developed countries in electrotech deployment

Emerging markets are leapfrogging developed markets in the speed and size of electrotech deployment. Why are the emerging markets moving so fast, where are they heading, and what does this mean for the global energy system?
