Overview

Roger and Guy will talk about Uniper and its strategy towards decarbonisation, focusing on two key aspects in the UK; low carbon dispatchable power generation and low carbon hydrogen production. They will explore the work developed to date, how this applies to Uniper’s assets, and developing projects across the UK and how this has the potential support decarbonisation in the UK.

This webinar is for anyone interested in the future direction of decarbonising UK's power generation sector.
