Net Zero Retail Logistics ThinkTank #3: NESO Roundtable
Climate Action Roadmap / Pathway 3 Low Carbon Logistics / Collective Action
Roundtable with NESO on Retail Logistics Energy
Calling Retail Logistics leaders to join us for this roundtable with the National Energy Systems Operator (NESO) Strategic Energy Planning team for discussion on future energy availability for retail logistics.
Why Should You Attend
- Find out about the progress with GB’s future energy system
- Understand how the system is being modelled across GB
- Assess how this meets with your business requirements
- Shape the plan (SSEP) to support retailers’ future energy needs
About the SSEP
The Strategic Spatial Energy Plan (SSEP) will provide a pathway for electricity and hydrogen generation and storage types, locations, capacities, and timings. This will be optimised for cost across demand and high-level network needs, as well as environmental, societal, and other spatial interests, to support the energy transition efficiently and securely.
The first SSEP will be a GB-wide plan, mapping potential zonal locations, quantities and types of electricity and hydrogen generation and storage

About the Net Zero Retail Logistics Think Tank
In recognising the need to accelerate the decarbonisation of logistics to meet near and long term net zero targets of both government and retailers, we are convening a Net Zero Retail Logistics Think Tank for collective action in identifying barriers and driving progress.
Over a series of workshops, the Think Tank objective will be to identify the enablers and support required from government, logistics industry and infrastructure development for retailers to achieve a cost-effective transition to zero-carbon logistics to meet government phase-out target dates.
