Location:

Sparks, Brussels

The Electrification Alliance is pleased to invite you at “Watt’s Next: The Electric Pathway to a Competitive, Secure Industry in Europe” a high-level conference bringing together policymakers, industry pioneers, and innovators. Our speakers will discuss how to break down persistent barriers and unlock Europe’s potential for secure, competitive, and sustainable growth.

Electrification is one of Europe’s most powerful levers for energy security, resilience, and affordable power. Despite remarkable growth in clean energy generation, progress on end-use electrification has faced significant challenges. With the European Commission set to unveil its Electrification Action Plan in early 2026, the time for bold decisions is now.
