Annual Conference 8th June 2009
The Changing Climate for Vehicles & Fuels

This year's highly successful event saw over two hundred delegates engaged in the low carbon transport agenda come together at London's City Hall to hear presentations and participate in discussions on issues and opportunities facing the sector, the UK and the global challenge of climate change.

Keynote speakers at the event (Click here for the brochure) were the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, and the newly-appointed Transport Secretary, Lord Andrew Adonis, in his first public speech in his new role. There was also a live video-link with the mayoralty of San Francisco and a high level cast of speakers and contributors.
