The LowCVP Conference 2015 will take place on Wednesday 24 June in Central London, sponsored by EDF Energy.
There will be sessions on how the national low carbon policy agenda can be delivered at local level and on the politics and prospects for lower carbon fuels.
The final Conference session will focus on innovative approaches to the introduction of electric vehicles. Earlier this year, Bolloré Group announced plans to bring Autolib Paris - the electric car sharing service which began in December 2011 - to London in 2015. Find out about progress in these plans from speakers Cedric Bolloré of Bolloré Group and Matthew Pencharz, Adviser to the Mayor, Boris Johnson, on Environment and Energy.
Please also join us at the post-conference drinks reception to network with other delegates, VIPs and MPs sponsored by Shell International.
