Energy Transition
VIRTUAL EVENT
FREE REGISTRATION
The Press & Journal in association with Royal Bank of Scotland are delighted to bring to you the second of our Virtual Business Breakfasts of 2021.
Renewable energy, low carbon, net-zero – these phrases are now at the heart of business life across
most sectors of the region’s economy. But what does that mean for firms in 2021 and how much
has changed since before the Covid-19 pandemic? How well are the region’s businesses adapting to
life through and beyond the energy transition? Aberdeen, in particular, has relied on the North sea
oil and gas industry for so long, so how are firms in the Granite City adjusting to a rapidly changing
economy and what kind of help and support is out there for them?
Who is driving the change?
We will be looking at these issues and more in The Press and Journal Business Breakfast.
